This version works a little better, by limiting the search properly(?) to results between "Matches" and "Subsections".

It's a bit messy, because it goes over tables, but it works. Maybe we could add the following tags to the search results:
Code:
<!--SearchStart-->
Matches:
... blah blah blah...
<!--SearchEnd-->


That would ensure we aren't traversing tables looking for search results, plus the results would be encapsulated in case we change default skins and decide not to use 'subsections'.
