Bug ID: 18341 Summary: NO-BREAK SPACE is not counted as white space in search queries. Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: master Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: Searching Assignee: gmcha...@gmail.com Reporter: bar...@bywatersolutions.com QA Contact: testo...@bugs.koha-community.org Created attachment 61648 --> https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/attachment.cgi?id=61648&action=edit CSV file containing titles separated by NO-BREAK SPACE I've transcribed this from a ticket that one of our partners submitted. A librarian noted that she had an Excel spreadsheet of titles she was copying and pasting into Koha to search, and occasionally one of the titles wouldn't come up even though they have the book. ( CSV file containing titles is attached.) She noted if she just typed the title into Koha, it came up w/o a problem. Here's a screenshot of one of the failed searches. Notice the %C2%A0 between the words. That's the UTF-8 code for non-breaking space (see http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00a0/index.htm). -- The underlying issue here is that when we paste in a search term containing the unicode NO-BREAK SPACE glyph, this arguably should be treated as white space, and the search should succeed if it matches strings with words separated by other whitespace characters. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Koha-bugs mailing list Koha-bugs@lists.koha-community.org http://lists.koha-community.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/koha-bugs website : http://www.koha-community.org/ git : http://git.koha-community.org/ bugs : http://bugs.koha-community.org/
