1879404 - A search submit event is cached even if the user doesn't submit a new search

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Search, defect, P2)

Description

[James Teow [:jteow]]

STR:

1. Use a search provider that we've enabled SPA-observation features.
2. Go to a SERP.
3. Type in the in-content searchbox.
4. Click a link that would cause the page to switch to another search page (e.g. related search).

Actual Result:

• No engagement event is registered.

Expected result:

• An engagement event should be registered, and the target should be a non_ads_link.

This is due to the fact that the in-content condition for whether a submit event was triggered is outside condition that gates the submit event.
