At the attached link you can see an inputbox which should only search trough the help namespace. But when you search specific terms you get articles of the same name. Examples: Vorlagen, Programmierung,...
If the searchterm is an exact match of an article in NS0 then this article will be shown. It seams, that the inputbox button has the function of the "Go" button. If the search term isn't in NS0 then the search works as requested. Example: "Diskussionsseiten" Possible solutions: 1. Change the inputbox button to the function of the "Search" button Disadvantage: If the search term exists in the requested namespace one more click is required 2. Extend the search term with the requested namespace Disadvantage: maybe not possible with 2 or more requested namespaces
Due to usability reasons I would suggest to take the frist solution. Users usually expect a list of search results because they are used to it because of internet search engines.

Created attachment 2911 [details] Replaced "searchx" with "fulltextsearch" in Inputpbox.php I dind't test the patch beacause I don't know how to. Can somebody help me?
Comment on attachment 2911 [details] Replaced "searchx" with "fulltextsearch" in Inputpbox.php Please submit patches (SVN unified diff files) against the changed file, rather than the entire file itself. To test the patch is quite simple; does this change to the file fix the reported problem or introduce the requested functionality, and does it do it without breaking anything else?
Created attachment 2913 [details] Make fulltextsearch with inputbox available Here is the requested diff-file. The patch will not break anything. It should also fix the reported problem. (I still didn't test it)
The patch works correctly. I tested it today. What are the next steps?
Applied in SVN trunk, r19700.
Man, I always forget to credit the authors in the commit messages for their patches when they're from Bugzilla :-( I'm sorry.
