perhaps not a problem of ikiwiki, if it's correct pure HTML

+I see, no Javascript is probably involved in using the search form;
+the code is simply:
+
+    <form method="get" action="/ikiwiki.cgi" id="searchform">
+    <div>
+    <input type="text" id="searchbox" name="P" value="" size="16"
+     />
+     </div>
+     </form>
+
+So, if the semantics suggested by HTML is such that such a form is to
+be submitted by some default form submitting action in the UI and it
+doesn't really require a button to be functional, then I'd say it's
+not an ikiwiki's problem, but a missing feature in the UI of emacs-w3m
+or the underlying w3m... Perhaps I'll report this issue to them. --imz
