Search terms not updated on the third search #1558

Description

@soundstep

From a Chrome incognito window, the third time that the search is used from deno.com, the search terms are not updated. It is very confusing as if you don't pay attention to the google search field, it looks like the search is not finding relevant results.

My own opinion: even when working, this google search is not great, it is confusing at first and it makes you go away from the original website. An update there would be good, nothing more frustrating than not finding what you are looking for especially when you start with something new like Deno.

Hope that helps.

How to reproduce

  1. Open Chrome incognito window
  2. Go to deno.com
  3. First search: type "cli" and press enter
  4. close the tab containing the search results
  5. Second search: change the search terms to "test" and press enter
  6. close the tab containing the search results
  7. Third search: type "namespace" and press enter

Expected:

Search results for the "namespace" search term.

Result:

Search results for the previously used search term "test" instead.
Any subsequent search used from deno.com will be stuck on the same search term.
See the different values between the q query search parameter in then URL showing the right one, and google search field in the same showing the previous search term (see last screenshot).

Demo:

Starting from deno.com in an incognito window:

Third search: search for "namespace" (not working):
