Summary: Inputbox search forms do "go" when hitting Enter in
Internet Explorer
Product: MediaWiki extensions

Same issue as bug 13778 -- the "fulltext" parameter in the default submit
button doesn't get submitted by Internet Explorer if you hit enter in a text
field.
As a result, fulltext searches from a form end up performing a "go" exact-match
search on submission, which isn't what was intended and sometimes gives
surprising results.
Forms intended to be fulltext-only need to include a hidden field providing the
"fulltext" parameter so it will actually get sent.
