I'm typing a Farsi(persian). No subject search does not.
Please utf8 Persian language and possibly also to test for the Arabic language is the same way too.

Hi,

when you move the popup above an "active" navbar tab, this tab will be displayed in front of the popup.

This bug already existed in an earlier version.

Changed only js files (both).

The search seems to find deleted threads, when user searching isn't authorized to see those. This can be fixed by adding;

 AND thread.visible =1

to the query. Even nicer would be to check if user can administer threads and base query on that, in ajaxlivesearch.php;

require_once(DIR . '/includes/adminfunctions.php');
..
$showHidden = can_administer('canadminthreads') ? "" : " AND thread.visible =1 ";
..
AND thread.lastpostid > 0
$showHidden     
ORDER BY " . $vbulletin->db->escape_string($lsasortby) . " " . $vbulletin->db->escape_string($lsasorttype) . "

Excellent mod, saves me a lot of work! (voted MOTM):up:
