[Steemblr] Search value of '#' or an empty value causes blank page upon search

in #utopian-io5 years ago

Expected behavior

Searches that are unable to return results should be clearly be indicated via no results to show a message. In the event, you press return and the length of the search value is equal to 0 the search should not be made.

Actual behavior

When you search # or simply press return within the search field (providing an empty value) a blank page is presented to the user.

How to reproduce

  1. Go to https://steemblr.com/
  2. Using the search bar at the top of the page enter the value "#" and press enter.
  3. Note that a blank page is shown to the user.
  4. Repeat steps 1 & 2 and instead of # simply press return and pass no value.

Environment

Browser: Google Chrome (Version 71.0.3578.98 (Official Build) (64-bit))
Device: MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013)
Operating system: MacOS Mojave Version 10.14.1 (18B75)

Hi @tobias-g, thanks for making this contribution.

I was able to reproduce the behavior you described. A blank page is shown when you search with the "#" or leave the search field blank without an input. This constitutes a strange user experience.

I can see the PO has acknowledged the ticket you opened. He claims he was able to reproduce this as well, and has promised to come up with a fix.

I like the manner in which you described the expected and actual behaviors. It is consistent with your previous reports. The steps were also easy to walk through.

In all, it is a great post and a good find.

Thanks again for the contribution. I look forward to more of these :)
