The query gets lost; pressing [Go] or [Search] give the same error page:

Search results
From Folktunes
For query ""

For more information about searching Folktunes, see Searching Folktunes.

The expanded URL works:
http://www.folktunes.org/music/index.php?title=Special:Search&search=polly&fulltext=Search

It looks like your rewrite rules are incorrect; they are obliterating the query string which is used 
to pass the search term. Use the QSA (query string append) option in the rewrite rule to prevent 
this.
Comment 2 Forrest O. 2005-05-17 22:52:44 UTC 
Thank you so much.  I thought this might have been my fault.
For me the correct line is:
RewriteRule ^wiki/?(.*)$ /music/index.php?title=$1 [QSA]
