[Plugin: Dave’s WordPress Live Search] View more results link broken if not on blog root page

    The view more results link doesn’t work on any pages other than the blog home page. This is because the link is:

    <a href="?s=' + resultsSearchTerm + '">View more results</a>

    So if you are on a page called about, the link then becomes /about/?s=

    The link needs to start from the blog root.

    I think something like the following would do the trick:

    <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?s=' + resultsSearchTerm + '">View more results</a>

    That sounds about right. Thanks for catching that, and thanks for the patch!

    No probs. I’m not sure if that particular section of code is evaluated on every key press. If it is there may be a more optimal place to get the root url just once, rather than keeping on calling the function. Anyway, thanks for a great plugin.

    The PHP code runs when the browser requests the Javascript file and sticks the URL in there. It’s a hard-coded string as far as Javascript is concerned.
