However on php.net the search returns to a blank text field on the results page. Just one example of when this is quite annoying is when you want to switch from a "function list" search to an "online documentation" search using the same query, you have to retype your query again. Note: This has of course taken me more time to report than it will ever save me, so I'm clearly not doing it for my own benefit. It's a small change but I imagine there are quite a lot of developers who have been silently annoyed by it and not reporting because of the reporting time issue associated with such a small feature request. :) Kind Regards ~ Gerry Reproduce code: --------------- Search for something on php.net Expected result: ---------------- Your search query is refilled in the search box on the results page Actual result: -------------- The search box is empty ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47923&edit=1
