The search function has had two failures recently:
Brian Wilson + The Zombies
- Brian Wilson +<br /> The Zombies
- Brian Wilson + The Zombies
- Brian Wilson + The Zombies
+ Brian Wilson and <br/>The Zombies
+ Brian Wilson and The Zombies
Extreme Midget Wrestling Federation
- Extreme<br />Midget<br />Wrestling<br />Federation <!-- NB: no space before br -->
+ Extreme <br />Midget <br /> Wrestling <br />Federation
In both cases, it seems to have a difficult time handing the <br /> element without a preceding space. But the main issue is that the + character breaks the search query entirely. Possibly due to SQL escaping issues.
Cases that are working as expected:
using to group words together in the event of line breaks, like so:
+ Brian Wilson and The Zombies
using literal (non-html) special characters like & or é:
+ MSO: An Evening with Hamilton’s Renée Elise Goldsberry
using escaped html special characters like é:
+ MSO: An Evening with Hamilton’s Renée Elise Goldsberry
