Issue Summary
This is reproducible on Data Center: Yes
Using the Confluence DC from mobile under Safari, the search function no longer works.
The reason is that Confluence uses the search event to search. However, Safari 17.2+ (11.12.2023) no longer supports this. As a result, the mobile servlet search does not work for all Safari browsers anymore. I tested this with Safari Mobile 17.0(works) and the latest one, 17.4(does not show any search results). Attached below are the screenshots.
A potential solution from our point of view would be to use another event instead of "search"; for example, keydown or keyup event.
Steps to Reproduce
- Log in to a Confluence Data Center using an iOS and Safari mobile 17.2+
- Try to search for a page or content
Expected Results
To show the results when searching for a page as shown here:

Actual Results
The search is not displaying any results:

Workaround
There are some workarounds available:
- Use Google Chrome
- Use a previous version of Safari
- Switch to Desktop Version, as the search works correctly in that mode.
