ID: 66402 Comment by: marcin at ntool dot pl Reported by: software at bsb dot me dot uk Summary: New style prevents many browser's "search in page" function from working. Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Website problem Operating System: Linux PHP Version: Irrelevant Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: I use Firefox on Linux and have exactly the same problem. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 21:04:46] software at bsb dot me dot uk I should probably not have said "many". It might be just the ones I use. On a clean Ubuntu install Firefox, Web (the Gnome browser) and Midori all take '/' to start an in-page search. Also, "take over this functionality" is maybe too strong. All that is taken over is the key binding; the functionality can be accessed using Ctrl+F. It's just that I've been using '/' for so many years that I notice when a website alters the behaviour. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 19:56:43] bj...@php.net Which "Many browsers"? I think you need to activate a plugin of some sorts for catching global space like that. Browser generally need a meta/function key or something (like alt or ctrl) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-03 14:13:02] software at bsb dot me dot uk Description: ------------ With JavaScript enabled, typing / moves focus to the search box. Many browsers use / as the key to activate a "search in this page" function. It seems a shame to take over that functionality. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66402&edit=1 -- PHP Webmaster List Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
