Fatman Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Heyllo, I'm using the latest Maxthon 4.4.6.1000 and I noticed this pesky bug under a certain scenario: Maxthon Settings | Tab bar | New tab action | Check: Open a new tab from the address bar Maxthon Settings | Address bar | Smart Address Bar | Check: PreSearch results while typing in the address bar To experience the issue, you also need to have any custom search engine. For example, I have a YouTube search engine, alias "y", with Search URL being http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%us Now, if I go to the address bar and type "y madonna like a prayer", it shows the PreSearch results in the current tab (as expected), but when I hit Enter, the new tab that opens is showing a search result from Google instead! Apparently it's using the default search engine (Google) instead of the triggered search engine (YouTube). If I uncheck the setting "PreSearch results while typing in the address bar", then the new tab is behaving as expected (a Youtube search result). Please confirm the bug and then spray/douche it with Raid or whatever you guys use over there. ;) --FM Edit: I just confirmed that this bug exists on the latest portable version of Maxthon (4.4.6.1000) too. The only two changes I've made from the default settings are: added an alias "a" to the already-existing Amazon search engine, and added a checkmark for "Open a new tab from the address bar". Then, as soon as I typed a sometest <Enter> in the address bar, I witnessed the bug (Amazon search results did not come up on the new opened tab).

-ody- Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 If I uncheck the setting "PreSearch results while typing in the address bar", then the new tab is behaving as expected (a Youtube search result). same behaviour here, with search aliases.

Fatman Posted June 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Was that a bug confirmation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7twenty Posted June 27, 2015 Report Share Posted June 27, 2015 Same here. Also if there is a match with any of your previously typed URLs they get autofilled in the address bar and you lose the alias entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-ody- Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Was that a bug confirmation? only "bugmissirs" can tag a bug as confirmed, so we have to wait for them to come back (on monday) this has been noticed for several updates, and I think they try to fix it. at the moment i don't use the preload feature (which I don't like anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
