Searching revBrowser content

The docs say I should be able to select text in a browser control by
setting the "selected" property. Repeatedly doing that should iterate
through all matches. I can't get it to select anything even once. Is
anyone else able to execute this successfully:
revBrowserSet sBrowserId, "selected", pString
The dictionary says it's a command but when I run it in the message box
it says there's an error in the function. I assume that's because the
engine treats it as a function internally. When I run it inside a
handler in the script, no errors.
I tried this (the script local sBrowserID has the correct value):
on doFind pString
revBrowserSet sBrowserId, "selected", pString --> nothing selected
get the result --> always empty
-- check to see what we have:
put revBrowserGet(sBrowserId, "selected") into tSel --> always empty
end doFind
Does this work for anyone? I'm using the CEF browser because the plain
old revBrowser won't load the file; it doesn't error but it shows no
content, it's completely empty.
