Plone Search term highlighting - unresponsive script - Firefox
Q. Users searching on a term in Google when using Firefox, 1.5, 2.0 and clicking on link for a Plone site - see an unresponsive script message. Does not occur in Internet Explorer. This is a major annoyance for Firefox users and also occurs for me on Plone.org site for many but not all terms when performing a site: search.
A. I was experiencing this and tracked it down to Search term highlighting which is a known problem but not fixed in Plone 2.5.1 which I am using.
I couldn't find a method to simply turn off Search Term Highlighting, so instead, I customisedÂ
/plone_ecmascript/highlightsearchterms.js
and for simplicity, inserted return false; at top of functions
| function highlightSearchTerms(terms, startnode) |
and
function highlightSearchTermsFromURI()
This is the official fix.
