Edit: Well, it seems to only work if I manually type in duckduckgo.com and navigate to the page and then use the searchbar on that page. But I use Firefox's duckduckgo search engine. Not as my default search engine but as a one-off search engine. That is, I type "@ddg w3schools" into the address bar and hit enter. And w3schools.com results will still show up on the page. See this URL for example: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=w3schools&ia=web
