A bug (maybe) with search....

[the DtTvB]

I think found some... bug, but I am not sure is that already discovered or not.

If you search for "a e i o u", it will get some results like this:

Wighlight">elcomighlight">e to SMF! by Simple Machines

in the title.

Where are you seeing this? With what version?

Try it here on this forum and look at the titles of the search results.

Neat. I looked at the page titles not the topic titles. I'll check and see if it is bugged or not and, if not, I will add it to the list.

It happens if you search for "e i" as well, and I think I can see what's happening...
The topic "Stats for user groups" is one of the search results returned upon searching for "e i". Now, since we're searching for "e", it highlights the letter "e":
Stats for us<b class="highlight">e</b>r groups

OK, that's fine. However, we're also searching for "i". SMF is searching the code so far for "i", and it matches the two i's in "highlight". We end up with something like this:
Stats for us<b class="h<b class="highlight">i</b>ghl<b class="highlight">i</b>ght">e</b>r groups

This causes incorrect HTML output, which corrupts its display. Indeed, searching for any portion of "highlight" will show this problem (searches for "light" will also show the same problems, for instance).

As KGIII mentioned, this has been added to our internal bug tracker, and should (hopefully) be fixed in a future release
