Testing Notes

  • "London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom. It stands on the River Thames in south-east England at the head of a 50-mile (80 km) estuary down to the North Sea, and has been a major settlement for two millennia.[9] The City of" gives only 1 page but "London is the capital" for some reason shows message "The page "London is the capital" does not exist..." and the mentioned page appears only on 2nd row.

  • Clicking on links in search results or in information boxes reloads the page. Is it possible to open a link in a new page?

  • It is impossible to delete "Sort by relevance" option, although there is a "X" button near it. This maybe a bit misleading. X.png
