Rocket.chat: [IMPROVEMENT] When click on Search Message button, focus is not on search box

[jazvillagra]

Description:

When you click on Search Messages, the focus doesn't go to the search box, so when you type something, it actually goes to the Message Typing box, instead of instantly searching what you're writing.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Go to any conversation or channel
2. Click on 'Search Messages'
3. Type something without clicking on the searchbox

Expected behavior:

Click on 'Search Messages' > Directly start typing in search box

Actual behavior:

Click on 'Search Messages' > Starts typing in Message box

Server Setup Information:

First tested on:

• Version of Rocket.Chat Server: tested on 0.65.1
• Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
• Deployment Method: tar
• NodeJS Version: 8.11.3
• MongoDB Version: 3.0.15

@aronrichter You need to create a single PR with your fix from your repo to here.

Someone will then look at it (I can't do that).

[aronrichter]

I already did that...
My bad... sorry...

NP !!

Can someone please look at this irritation?

There is a fix. It is low hanging fruit. It stops you sending text you meant to search for to a channel by mistake.....

Had numerous user complaints about it.
