Results which I get by “Search in API Reference” contains broken links. For example:

but should be

i.e. search engine for some reason replaces “.” with “_1_1”
Can someone fix this?

It was reported back in April (1.8.1 SDK Release), the search works for 1.8.0 if that’s any help.

I made small script for greasemonkey and chromium userscript, which can fix this trouble. May be useful to someone.

elems = document.getElementsByClassName("SREntry");
for(var i in elems){
    if (elems[i].innerHTML){
        elems[i].innerHTML = elems[i].innerHTML.replace(/_1_1/g, ".");
    }
}
