Otto: Link spawning wasn't in there originally, so something has changed fairly recently. Can you find out who changed it? I know there MUST be a good reason, but this breaks web standards and one thing WordPress loves is standards. ;-)<br>

I did. :)</div><div><br></div>This is because we switched over to the Google Search when Yahoo's search discontinued their API and the searches stopped working. This didn't involve changing anything on the codex, which I don't have access to change right now. Google's results have the new window target set, and seemingly no way to make it not do that. I'll look into it, but I see nothing on a cursory glace at the docs.</div>
<div class="gmail_quote"><br></div><div class="gmail_quote">The search box in the header isn't a site or area specific search. Never has been, AFAIK. It's a search for all of WordPress.org, on all pages. The wording possibly needs work. Use Special:Search if you only want to search the codex.<br>
