Error with Bookdown search

Hello,
I sucessfully create my gitbook themed bookdown book when I click "build-book" in Rmarkdown. Additionally, the book that pops up allows me to search throughout my various chapters perfectly. However, when I click on the "open in browser" button on the top left, even though the book successfully opens in my browser (as a local file), the search (i.e., magnifying glass) doesn't open. Any idea how to make the search work in my browser?
Joe

This is a limitation of browsers that prevent localhost files from executing scripts. If you publish it to an actual URL, then the search will work fine.

Thank you for letting me know that.
