Description Stefano Bargioni 2011-03-09 16:02:20 UTC
When searching using more than one word, if one of them is contained in a previous one, unhilight button cuts some chars off the result page.
Test with "manual nu" or something similar.
Reason: highlight generates
<span class="term">Ma<span class="term">nu</span>al</span>
and unhighlight leaves only "Ma".
Note that the bug is not visible if the search is "nu manual".

I can confirm this bug on current master. My search was "Didaktik da".
Comment 2 Owen Leonard 2012-11-26 21:04:31 UTC
This bug applies to the new highlight feature on the detail page as well.

[PASSED QA] Bug 5844: Avoid strings cut on unhighlighing

If a user is searching for several words and that one is contained in
another ( "mag ma" ), some characters are cut (removed from the DOM!).

To reproduce:
1/ search for "mag ma m"
2/ The result page contains "Magazine"
3/ "Mag" is highlighted
4/ Click on the "Unhighlight" link
5/ The "Magazine" words become "azine", "Mag" has been cut.
There is no way to show these characters again.

Test plan:
1/ Confirm the bad behavior without this patch
2/ Apply this patch
3/ search for "mag ma m"
4/ The result page contains "Magazine"
5/ "Mag" is highlighted
6/ Click on the "Unhighlight" link
7/ strings are unhighlighted and still in the DOM :)

Note that the Highlight link won't work very well (only "a" will be
highlighted, but considered as minor since this did not work before the
patch neither).

Followed test plan. Strings are no longer cut when unhiglighted.
