I want to search for a word on a page. I know the first letter is a P the last letter is a L and there are 4 letters in-between them.

How can I search for this word?

Chrome's "Find in page" search function does not support wildcards.

You can install the highlight regexp bookmarklet from Squarefree, which will allow you to search for JavaScript regexps: P.{4}L or \bP.{4}L\b (the latter also matches word boundaries).
