“instant search” added to bmo

we’ve just deployed instant search to bugzilla.mozilla.org:

it uses the possible duplicates function that you see when filing a new bug to display results as you update the search term. while it’s much quicker than other searching mechanisms, it’s also very limited – only the bug’s summaries are searched.

one item of note is it uses the related products facility from the guided bug entry form to automatically search related products; eg. if you select firefox as the product, the core and toolkit products will also be searched.

bugzilla.mozilla.org source

there’s been a few questions recently regarding the location of the source which runs bugzilla.mozilla.org.

you can find it at bzr.mozilla.org/bmo – we’re currently running the 4.0 branch.
