livesearch macro doesn't work properly on IE6 , IE7 and IE8

      The search string for livesearch macro is ignored in IE using livesearch macro. The URL produced using livesearch is:

      http://confluence.atlassian.com/dosearchsite.action?s=hello&quickSearch=true&where=&queryString=

      This can be replicated on the official site: http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Livesearch+Macro

      However dynamic search results do appear prior to pushing enter. Also, users can navigate the dynamic search results.

      This behaviour can not be reproduced in Firefox.

      Steps to reproduce:
      To reproduce this bug, open ie 6, 7 or 8
      Create a page with the livesearch macro or navigate to this link in the documentation:
      http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Livesearch+Macro

      Type in a search term that will produce a known result and use the mouse to click "go"

      Choosing a search result from the menu will not reproduce the bug.

      The result is a page with an empty search box.

      IE produced this error:
