Functionality seems to work nicely. The Artist/Album/Songs search buttons are
nice shortcuts to the full results. The Play/Add buttons on each individual
item seem to work correctly.
Some observations:
1. If I move mouse over the search button, and mouse pointer then sits beneath
the search strip, after typing one character the live search area pops up, and
one of the result lines receives the mouse focus, so subsequent keypresses are
ignored. Could keypresses be passed to the search widget if mouse is anywhere
within the live search panel? Especially annoying if the next keypress is
backspace, causing a browser back navigation!
2. Having typed something and lost focus, clicking in search box causes the
live search results panel to disappear, and for the exist text to get
highlighted, so another mouse click to avoid new keypresses overwriting
existing text.
3. What is the sort order for determining the top 5 matches in each category to
display in live search? I'm not seeing the same top 5 order in the normal
search results list (which is alphabetical). eg. A search for "king" returns:
Live Search:
King Crimson
Roger King
Brenda White-King
Kings Of Convenience
B. B. King
Search Music results:
Acid King
The Flower Kings
The Future Kings Of England
Kaki King
B. B. King
4. Mouse-over albums in live search causes some of the mini artwork images to
slightly move around/flicker. It looks like some artwork images to reposition
one pixel higher?
5. The live search results panel looks nice, but is a bit thin. I get lots of
result visibly cropped - can scroll horizontally to read, but the grey strip
down left hand side doesn't move (artwork does).
6. The Artists/Albums/Songs search buttons in live search could have Play/Add
buttons, as shortcuts to the resultant "All Songs" play/add functions? Note
for Song results, All Songs is on the top of the results list, but All Songs is
at the bottom for Artists and Albums results. A bit inconsistent, although
perhaps more useful for song results only?
7. In Advanced Search page, the live search button in page title doesn't expand
to show search panel on mouse over. Only appears if I click on it.
