Different behaviour on address bar results when doing partial or full address search
@dyskette
Submitted by Eddy Castillo Link to original bug (#784569)
Description
Writing a web address in the search bar (or selecting a result item) shows different results than writing part of the address.
Better shown in 2 videos:
-
https://youtu.be/feAIxQz6BS4 Showing git.gnome.org results behaviour
-
https://youtu.be/ptmnaSNuV_k Showing another address behaviour
To reproduce:
- Focus the address bar and start writing. E.g. git.gnome
- Select a result. E.g. https://git.gnome.org/browse/epiphany
- Delete characters. E.g. https://git.gnome.org/brow
- Results may be incomplete (compared to those on step 1) or empty.
Or, to reproduce:
- Write the full address with the keyboard. e.g. https://git.gnome.org
- Compare results with a partial search (e.g. git.gnome)
Reproducible: Always.
