Description:
------------
I type in "__CLASS__" in the search box.
Expectation: I get directly to the page describing magic constants, or to a page linking to that
page.
Current situation: I get a result page stating "__class__ doesn't exist. Closest matches:
..." and a list of functions.
Neither does searching for "constant" or "magic constant" deliver any reasonable
results.
I type in "constants" in the search box.
Expectation: The autosuggest feature should contain an entry that points to the constants page http://de2.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.php
and/or the magic constants page http://de2.php.net/manual/en/language.constants.predefined.php
Current situation: The autosuggest feature only contains one entry for "Constants for
PDO_4D" pointing to http://de2.php.net/manual/en/pdo-4d.constants.php
- however, simply pressing return will do an actual search getting me to a result connected to the
string I typed, but which is in no way connected to the autosuggest result I see, so the autosuggest
is misleading.
