Hi!
This may be unrelated to the problem you describe, but when I access
https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges?debug=1&uselang=en
I get the following errors on Firefox 7.0.1:
----
Error: $("body") is null
Source:
https://bits.wikimedia.org/w/extensions-1.18/Vector/modules/ext.vector.coll…
Line: 5
var rtl = $( 'body' ).is( '.rtl' );
----
Error: linkFA_enabled is not defined
Source:
https://bits.wikimedia.org/als.wikipedia.org/load.php?debug=true&lang=e…
Line: 141
if (!linkFA_enabled) return;
----
Besides, if I try to close the Fundraising banner, on a random page such as
https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_Life?debug=1&uselang=en
I get
----
Error: $("#centralNotice") is null
Source:
https://als.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Spezial:BannerController&ca…
Line: 20
----
I believe these bugs are caused by the first line on
https://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.js?uselang=en
i.e.:
function $(ID) {return document.getElementById(ID);}
because $ is a default alias for jQuery, which is used by various scripts.
See more on:

Maybe the same thing is the cause of the problem with search suggestions.
Best regards,
Helder

At als.wikipedia, search completion behaves strangely
- at
http://als.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Letschti_%C3%84nderige ,
it works as expected, but at most (all?) other pages,
it does not work at all.
Anyone having an idea?
Thanks!
