Hi

I think that you mean the text that says "x of y matches", to the right of the box where you entered the search term.

The first number ("x" in my example above) points to the current highlighted entry on the page that matches the search term. If you use the up and down arrows to navigate the instances of that search term on the page, you will see that number go up and down.

I hope that this helps, but if not please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.
