Additional information

When I try to search for something it clears the search field but nothing happens- there isn't even a network call.

That's odd, it's working fine for me (FF 129.0.2 (64-bit))

Can confirm I'm having this issue right now in Chrome and Firefox.

And then I went back to check another tab that it really was not working and it was now working

Edit: And is back to now not working:

The URL was https://search.opentofu.org/provider/databricks/databricks/resources/global_init_script.md

I think my issue is that I type too fast. If you go to the page, type in a provider name, and hit enter before the autocomplete thing shows up then the search field gets emptied and no auto complete occurs (or actual search). You need to tweak the javascript so that you take over the "enter" command and don't clear the field.

Ah, I've hit that myself. That's definitely a weird UI quick that needs to be fixed.

This might have been my issue as well, I just started typing into the Providers search box quickly and hit enter as soon as I was done typing.

Coming back to it later, and typing in my provider, and then waiting maybe a second or two resulted in the autocomplete and drop down filling in fine

I believe this works now, but we need to fix the search ranking.

No, the same bug is there.

You should change the javascript to ignore when someone hits the enter key to resolve this bug.
