Description Chris McMahon 2012-11-13 21:10:29 UTC
Seen in IE8 and IE7 since Nov 9 2012 in vector at least, IE9 and above seems OK: 

in English Wikipedia
type any text into the search box
do not select or click any suggested text that appears below the search box
click the magnifying glass icon

suggested text disappears
no search occurs, user is left at original page

workaround: click the suggested text that appears below the search box, and search will complete

several tickets in OTRS refer to this
Comment 2 Chris McMahon 2012-11-13 22:13:13 UTC
update: 

seen in IE8 in compatibility mode, not in normal mode

Gerrit change #33287: Apparently IE7 (and IE8 in compatability mode) use 'type="button"' as the default for <button> tags rather than 'type="submit"'. So clicking the button doesn't submit.
Comment 5 Brad Jorsch 2012-11-13 23:08:57 UTC
Oh look, someone already submitted almost the same thing as Gerrit change #30819. Merged.
