You don't need to use a search input form with TextExtract.
You can use it as a markup expression.
The option markup=on works only for include-all regex . pattern,
If one would allow regex patterns and active markup the results can
be highly irregular, as for instance ending markup may be not
included.

TextExtract is not useful to mine pages for whole markup blocks, as
it processes text content line by line.
