Is search a bit broken?

What's Hot
Trying to search on term 'Princeton'. It returns several pages of results, but I can only view the first page. If I click on the next page arrow or another page number button it chops the leading 'P' off the search term and returns a new page with no results for 'rinceton'.

Is this a known bug or something to do with me? Using Chrome on PC.

    Yep - it's a totally confounding bug. Use a lower-case "p", and it should be fine.

    Alas no, all lowercase makes no difference.

    Is it just that one word? Just tried a few other searches and they worked fine. Weird!

    It appears to be any word beginning with "p". What a marvellously interesting bug!

    I've found that too. Just type a space before the search term.

    But the correct answer to "Is search a bit broken?" is "No - it's a bit shit".
