Yes, same here, for both your and my code. Still, Sue was getting different results.

There are only 2 extra parameters in the earlier code version compared to the later one:

Code:
&ie=UTF-8
This is about the webpage's encoding and seems auto-inserted whenever you search for a word that contains a diacritic letter. It can't possibly have anything to do with the mobile vs. regular site version -- or if it does, it's a severe Google bug.

Code:
&prev=_m
I was unable to determine what this particular search parameter means. "Prev" as in "previous [search page]"? Or is it Preview? In any case, it contains an m, too, which I optimistically interpreted as referring to "mobile" as well, just like the first m.

If simply removing the &prev=_m parameter (and/or the UTF-8 parameter) will make the code work for Sue suddenly, I'll be ecstatic.
