[solved] annoying "Search..." in input line at tag search
-
When I follow a tag by clicking it, I enter the list of items tagged with it. I see the Looking for other tags? link and go to the
"tag search":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/tags , there the (sooner or later appearing) word "Search..." fights with me for control of the input line.
-
...and "Search..." is a very special tag.
-
Sounds like the JavaScript is slow to load.
If you click this link: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/tags/?tag_search=tutorial
Equally slow?
-
hm... don't know exactly, it's slow, but tutorial deletes any input, whereas "Search..." is mostly combined.
If the "Search..." would be killed completety, I would find it more comfortable.
-
I've had the same problem.

I find this faster.

I noticed the same thing.... In fact, took me a few times before I noticed that it would actually delete the "Search..." by itself.

We shall remove the "Search..." text, thanks for the feedback.
-
Thanks. Have you already added this to the bugtracker? (when yes:) Where?
-
...and what about the obfuscating Uppercasing appearing at the list of items tagged with a particular tag mentioned "here":https://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/2016/#9554 ?
-
We're going to make the Tag module case-insensitive so we don't have issues like that. It's on the list, but not for the coming release.

Marius, please have a close look at what get when you click on a beta tag:
"Beta":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/search/tag/beta
(the uppecase Beta in the page title dosn't matter at all)You'll see this line on top of the page:
Content tagged with Beta Looking for other tags?The uppercase Beta following the phrase "Content tagged with" is my problem.
...I cannot believe that this little bug has to wait for a further release, or...

That is indeed a minor issue and the fix for that has already been committed to our git repository. The change was from:
@$tags[$key] = ucwords($tag); @
to
@$tags[$key] = $tag;@
We release a new version of DevNet every two weeks. Should there be critical issues in between releases we of course push them live right away.
I know it looks like a quick fix that could be pushed out in 5 minutes but - as many developers are sure to know - in the long run it's better to have a good release process and not touch the live environment too often[1]. Even trivial things can surprise you.
We typically fix 20-40 issues per release and by doing it in this bi-weekly fashion we ensure proper testing and some order for the release manager and the developers.
fn1. Actually, one day, we want to do "continuous deployment":http://toni.org/2010/05/19/in-praise-of-continuous-deployment-the-wordpress-com-story/ but we're not there yet.

How good, that I insisted in this point ;) ...and it improves the performance :)

“Search…” is gone now :)

:) That's phantastic!
