   Happy new year everybody!

   New year - new problems :-p
   after the server move to a new wonderful 4GB Quad core server, all the sites, even most of the galleries, load under 1 second. On the old server I thought, it was just the slow server that produced this problem.

   But still -

   the search function on my site doesn't work and I have no idea why. Once you send the form, it calls index.php?s=searchword and loads forever and forever...

   Can you help me on what causes it?

   This is the search page:
   http://johnny-depp.org/jdorg/search/

   the same happens when I put the search widget into the sidebar.

   This is my search.php (the template for the search site)

   <?php /* Template Name: Search*/ ?>
   <?php
   /**
    * @package WordPress
    * @subpackage Default_Theme
    */
   
   get_header(); ?>
   	<?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
   
   		<h1 class="pagetitle">Search Results</h1>
   
   		<div class="navigation">
   			<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
   			<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
   		</div>
   
   		<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   
   			<div <?php post_class() ?>>
   				<h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
   				<small><?php the_time('l, F jS, Y') ?></small>
   
   				<p class="postmetadata"><?php the_tags('Tags: ', ', ', '<br />'); ?> Posted in <?php the_category(', ') ?> | <?php edit_post_link('Edit', '', ' | '); ?>  <?php comments_popup_link('No Comments »', '1 Comment »', '% Comments »'); ?></p>
   			</div>
   
   		<?php endwhile; ?>
   
   		<div class="navigation">
   			<div class="alignleft"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Older Entries') ?></div>
   			<div class="alignright"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Entries &raquo;') ?></div>
   		</div>
   
   	<?php else : ?>
   	<?php endif; ?>
   
   		<h2 class="center"Try a different search?</h2>
   <form id="searchform" method="get" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>">
   <p><input name="s" type="text" id="s" size="33" maxlength="99" />
   <input type="submit" class="submit" value="Search &raquo;" /></p>
   </form>
   
   <br style="clear:both;margin:10px 0;" />
   
   <?php get_sidebar(); ?>
   <?php get_footer(); ?>

   this my searchform.php (although I also removed this file to have the search.php call for the default searchform - same problem)

   ` <form id="searchform" method="get" action="/">
   <div>
   <input type="text" class="alignleft" style="clear:none;" name="s" id="s" size="25" />
   <input type="submit" style="width:auto" value="Search"/><br class="clear" />
   </div>
   </form>`

   what have I done wrong?

   Thank you, Martina.
