not working with chrome

[Randomm]

yeah the automatic list generator doesn't work in Chrome
I actually have to press the ENETER key for it the generate the list
but it's not a big deal

What I want to know though is how to remove the "Live" part from the "Live Search"
Basically I just want the word "Search" to appear in the bar
anyone?

I got this working on my 4.1.2 with no issues, except when using Chrome.

It works in chrome using the js files that are in the do not upload folder. Those files say version 4.0.6 and the ones in the upload folder say 4.0.5 so Im guessing mad@max forgot to update the new files.

Thanks, this works perfectly

[android-schweiz]

great work! but it's not working in chrome (tried both upload and do-not-upload versions). so it's useless for me

[Randomm]

yes on Chrome, it doesn't automatically generate the results...you have to click search or press enter

[gulli]

installed on our dev systems for gulli.com. works fine. changed some parts to use it with sphinx searchengine. will be online in a few days.

[android-schweiz]

but is it that big effort to get it working on chrome? i guess chrome is one of the leading browsers. why not 'enabling it'? many thanks!

[Mariner1]
