search function hanging

[dfludd]

Hi thank you very much for your time. I checked both files they seem to be alright. I also installed the debug file and it is giving me this error :
[04-Feb-2009 00:30:59] PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/shortexp/public_html/shop/includes/languages/english/classic/header.php:2) in /home/shortexp/public_html/shop/includes/init_includes/init_templates.php on line 78

There seems to be a problem with the header I have check it several times but I'm not sure what to do at this point?

PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/shortexp/public_html/shop/includes/languages/english/classic/header.php:2) in ...

So ... what exactly is on line 2 of that particular file on your server? Or better yet, what's the entire file contents? Paste the contents here, using [ code ] and [ /code ] tags around it.

Well, the content that you posted looks fine. Are you sure that that's what's on the *server*?
What happens if you delete that file from the server and reload it using a copy of the master one from the folder one level up from there?

Hi I just tried your suggestion and i still get a blank results screen. I'm really lost here I do not know why this is happening. It took months to get this site configured the thought of starting fresh is unthinkable.

What are the updated debug log files saying now?
