GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 328293
ctrl + enter always opens new tab with google search

Please describe the problem: Hiya. I was looking for ways to work with tabs, and I found out that if you go to the location bar, enter any text and push ctrl+enter, epiphany will open it on an additional tab. This is quite nice, because you don't even have to worry about opening a tab. However, it doesn't seem to be working properly: anything you enter, epiphany will do a google search for it. You type the first letters of a bookmark, scroll down for it and push ctrl+enter? Instead of opening the bookmar on another tab, epi will just do a google search for these first letters you typed. Want to select an URL? Same as before, epi will do a google search. This tab thing would be such a time-saving feature, if only it would wok right. Steps to reproduce: 1. enter text 2. push ctrl+enter 3. watch. Actual results: a google search is made on another tab. Expected results: the bookmark or URL you selected should be opened on another tab. Does this happen every time? always. Other information:
Confirming.
Real steps to reproduce: 1) Enter some text 2) scroll to an entry in the autocompletion list 3) hit Ctrl+Enter
This seems to be a duplicate of bug 314754 ?
314754 is similar, but this bug observes that a google search is performed. I'm not sure that's the same thing...
I guess it's because you type some text that's NOT an url, then ctrl-enter opens that in new tab, where the keyword: thing kicks in ? i.e. if you do just enter the same text and press enter (just enter, don't autocompletion drop-down select!), the same thing happens?
chpe: yes, you describe it correctly.
I think this is a dupe of #345934
Indeed. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 345934 ***
