I did an update to MW 1.18 and now I have a problem with the search suggestions: The suggestions appear and when I click one, the text is filled into the search box. However, the form is not submitted. So the according page is not loaded anymore. This worked correctly in MW 1.17. I can reproduce this bug with several skins: With Vector and with MonoBook and with a custom skin, which is based in Vector. I have tested the following browser: The issue is present in FF8 and FF9. It is not present in IE8, Opera and Chrome.
Just noting that I tested FF, Opera and Chrome when Joerg brought this up in IRC and saw exactly what he is talking about. I didn't see any errors in firebug.
I can't reproduce this in Firefox 8.0.2 with 1.18 or trunk. Steps: * go to wiki's main page * click in search form * type 'special:' * click one of the results Expected result: * page navigates to the selected special: page Actual result: * as expected
This is bug 31602. Not marking as duplicate in the hope that you backport r100348 before closing this bug.
Hi Michael, yes, r100348 fixes the issue for me. This is an anoying bug. If you plan to have another 1.18.x release, I would highly appreciate a backport! I have just checked it in my 1.18 installation and it is working. :-)

Closing, this seems to have been done.
