Cannot search edits by editor name

XMLWordPrintable

      This function was working nicely, but has regressed with the most recent fixes.

      When I filter edits for the name of an editor (esp. my own!) it is ignored.

      IIRC, while this function was working for me, there was some scripting behaviour which provided a pull-down of candidate user names for me to pick one. Now I still see the magnifying glass icon in the text box, but no pull-down is presented.

      This is different from the behaviour for other text-type fields. For example, I can choose the "artist" condition, and I still get the pull-down, can select a name and see the field turn green.

      So, I tried searching for Artist=Gustav Mahler, Editor=monxton. The query sent was:

      http://musicbrainz.org/search/edits?order=desc&auto_edit_filter=&negation=0&combinator=and&conditions.0.field=artist&conditions.0.operator=%3D&conditions.0.name=Gustav+Mahler&conditions.0.=&conditions.0.args.0=10293&conditions.0.user_id=360197&field=editor&operator=%3D&name=monxton&args.0=&field=Please+choose+a+condition

      The result was as if I had just asked for Mahler with no editor filter, and moreover, the editor field had disappeared from the search conditions.
