Search is returning results for non-topics in RH2015

In RH 2015 Help output, when I type a word that occurs both in topics and "non-topics" into the Search field, the search returns results for the "non-topics" as well as the topics.

  • For example, if I type "DGMC" into the Search field, the search lists topics that have this acronym, as expected. But it also lists "Home > DGMC Help," which is not a topic: it's the title of the Help. A couple of the results also display the message "Your browser does not support JavaScript," etc. The browser does support Javascript and overall the Help works fine. (screenshot 1)
  • When you click one of the "DGMC Help" results, you get a blank topic with "DGMC" highlighted in the browse sequence, Or you get a blank topic showing the Contents, Search, and Glossary buttons. (screenshots 2 and 3)
  • If you type "DGMC Help" (not just "DGMC") into the Search field, you get the original blank or weird "DGMC Help" entries, but you also get a couple of "WebHelp Navigation Toolbar" and "WebHelp Navigation Mini-bar" entries. When you click the "Web Navigation Toolbar" entry, it returns a bright red screen with two rows of Contents, Search, and Glossary buttons. (screenshot 4)

Is this just an anomaly of RH 2015? Is there a way to fix it?

Probably another one for you, Willem!

Are you getting this happening with all browsers you use or just one in particular?

On my system, the Help is running in IE. I'm checking with a colleague (he's off-site in another state at the moment) to see if he got the same result on other browsers.

What version of IE?
