#48159 [Bgs]: After a search, section drop-down changes to "online documentation"

ID: 48159 Updated by: philip@php.net Reported By: php at atu dot cjb dot net Status: Bogus Bug Type: Website problem PHP Version: Irrelevant New Comment: This change has been reverted in favour of researching the following: http://wiki.php.net/ideas/phpnetsearch Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-06 04:45:57] philip@php.net Today I changed the default from 'function list' to 'online documentation' so this is intentional and not a bug. The site has never retained previous selections here, as it has always reverted back to the default. Whether this should be handled differently will be discussed while the site is redesigned these upcoming months. Likely we'll end up with a mashup of search results as the default and additional options like 'search last query as function list instead?' ... If you feel the change of the default is a poor design decision (or simply would like to discuss it and find alternatives) then please instead use the php-webmaster@lists.php.net mailing list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-06 04:18:28] php at atu dot cjb dot net Description: ------------ Every search that is performed leaves the section drop-down as: <option value="manual" selected="selected">online documentation</option> Reproduce code: --------------- Go to: http://ca.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php At the top of the page fill in: search for __anything__ in the [function list] Submit the search. Expected result: ---------------- As the web site has done for all the years I've used it, perform a search for "anything" and maintain the section drop-down as "function list". Actual result: -------------- The section drop-down is forced to be "online documentation". ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48159&edit=1
