(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Editing, defect, P2)

Description

[Josh Matthews [:jdm]]

STR:
1. go to developer.mozilla.org
2. search for sendnativemouseevents
3. visit resulting wiki link
4. search for sendnativemouseevents

Expected:
Same results as earlier search

Actual:
Your search query sendnativemouseevents contains characters which need to be escaped. See this FAQ for more information.

Sorry, there were no exact matches to your query in this language. You may want to try searching all languages.

I just want to add that this happens with the "MDC Search" search tool that's embedded in the site. It basically makes the official search tool unusable since any search you make will return this error.

This problem is not reproducible, now that the site is using Google search internally.
