9. If we're searching using capital letters, then the auto-suggest doesn't function. Also if a character in the target article has an uppercase char somewhere after the first, then putting it in lowercase also removes the auto-suggest. But then the main search is completely case insensitive.

: This is the same bug as before reported by Ryan. We have a similar issue with accents... in accented languages like a lot of latin one. I think I need around 10 hours to fix the problem with lower/upper cases and 10 additional for the accents. Want to make a feature request for that (so will be fixed later).

10. On entering two words and searching, it returns results that will have one or both the words.
