Have been using Weesearch Pro for the last week or so without a problem.Now when I try to do a Google seach I get a pop up on screen saying:
Safari cannot open the page.
The error was;"The URL can't be shown"
The address bar shows www.google.(null)/search?q=**

** = whatever I am searching for.

Everything else seems to work(that doesnt use Google) ie youtube, amazon,dictionary.

Have you tried uninstall/reinstall? Do you have any 3rd party browsers installed? Any browser addons or tweaks installed or applied?
 
Have done a reinstall, followed by removal and install.Same result.
No 3rd party browsers or browser tweaks.
Have obviously tried respringing and reboot, makes no difference.
 
I tried editing Searchform.plist from:
<key>Google</key>
<dict>
<key>URL</key>
<string>http://www.google.%@/search?q=%@</string>
<key>TLD</key>
<true/>
<key>CC</key>
<false/>
</dict>

to:
<key>Google</key>
<dict>
<key>URL</key>
<string>http://www.google.com/search?q=%@</string>
<key>TLD</key>
<true/>
<key>CC</key>
<false/>
</dict>

This makes no difference, but if I add a new search engine with the above address it works:confused:
 
The .plist I edited in the previous post was found in
system/library/weeappplugins/weesearchpro.bundle




I found another copy of search form.plist in
private/var/mobile/documents/weesearch

I edited this as above, now Google opens but whatever I search for, the search result is (null) as in the attached image.
