[Bug 1266923] [NEW] Focus should be set to search results if they are loaded with AJAX

 

Public bug reported:

When searching for content in Mahara, most of the time the search results are loaded with Javascript, so to a screen reader user it seems like nothing happens when pressing the search button. Examples include
- Elasticsearch (sitewide search)
- Content -> Pages
- Groups -> Group "Members" tab
- Administration -> Users -> User search
- Administration -> Groups -> Administer groups
- Administration -> Institutions
- Administration -> Users -> Site staff (and site admins, institution staff, etc.)

When the search button is pressed, focus should be set to the first
search result (or somewhere else logical, like the results heading).
