To no avail, I tried adding this line:

$('#topic1').trigger('keydown');

I also tried it as:

$('#topic1').trigger('keypress');

to make this function like this:

$('#topic1').focus(function(){
        $('#topic1').search();
        $('#topic1').trigger('keydown');
});

neither caused it to work.

As I did mention, the .search worked to cause the query to go to the
server and the server returned results, but the results weren't
displayed.
