Auto-complete/suggestions not working when clicked on #15

This feature has not worked for me since Firefox 32, no matter the version of Second Search used (I tried them all).

Let's pretend I want to search something about Edward Norton. What I was used to be able to do was to type "EDW", then Firefox would suggest a bunch of things starting with "EDW", all I had to do was then to click on what I wanted to search and that was it. Now, and since Firefox 32, if I do the exact same thing, clicking on a suggestion won't work and Firefox will search the term as I typed it without taking the suggestions into consideration If I remove SecondSearch, said suggestions work again.

-Windows 10/Windows 7 -Firefox 32 to Firefox 43.01 -from 0.7.2012031101.1-signed to 1.0.2015122401, also tried the latest master version available and the latest nightly version -I have the same issue on 3 different computers, with brand new profiles on each one

Let me know if you need any more information, thank you.

Well at least cross-testing all those versions of Firefox with all those versions of SecondSearch and then posting my findings here was not a total waste of time.

This doesn't happen for me on Ubuntu, Firefox 44, and Second Search (latest development build).

I updated to Firefox 44 and now Second Search doesn't seem to work at all. Before updating I was able to make Second Search work by disabling the " browser.search.showOneOffButtons" option in "about:config" but since this option has been removed in FF 4x, Second Search doesn't work at all.

I tried with Windows 10 with FF 44 and the latest master build, the latest nightly build and the latest development build. I tried a fresh FF install with a fresh new profile. Heck, I even installed Ubuntu and FF44 with a fresh new profile, no other extension and I get the exact same result

edit : after a quick search it seems that I am not the only one having difficulties with Second Search
