Saved search gets "destroyed" when opening in search edit

zaphod1984
Path Finder

I have the following search:

sourcetype="renderer" earliest=-3mon latest=now rdr_time>0 | timechart span=1d count by rdr_template

everything works fine.
when i open that search in the search manager it opens correctly but within a second it gets completely messed up and results in this:

sourcetype="renderer" earliest==now rdr_time>0 | timechart span=rdr_template

(notice the '==' or the 'span=rdr_template')
after saving of course the search does not make any sense and fails.

has anybody an idea why this happens and what can be done? thx!

it looks like something is wrong with an piece of javascript that tries to do some kind of transformation on the query.

Go FF!

Could it be some security feature regarding XSS that is different between the browsers?

Hmm, change to a different browser?

exactly the same does happen.
it appears that a javascript changes the search after the page has been loaded.

What happens if you just remove the latest=now? It's not really needed.
