Prev: AJAX function doesn't return responseText in the right place
Next: It will be nice if javascript function can be interrupted and re-entered at latter time

Have you ever wanted to search a string that has a character that is not
included in the search, such as "@required" or "[[HasProperty]]"?

Well google search won't include those chars in the result. Search
"@required" and the result is the same as if "required" had been the input.

I thought I'd give Bing.com a try, I found it strips out punctuation
characters like Google. I noticed that Bing has a feedback link and so I
thought to submit a comment. After a few attempts and getting
nondescript site error messages, I looked at the js console.

It turns out that it just throws javascript errors. Mostly
getLatestElement is not defined and CheckForHosting is not defined. The
page tries to call those functions but they're not available for some
reason.

That's aggravating. If a site is going to that much trouble to provide a
feedback form, it should at least work.
