Nat Lanza probably has the crashes figured out, but there's a much
easier way of doing this:
NSString *searchCall = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://
www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%@&btnG=Google+Search", [[searchField
stringValue]
stringByAddingPercentEscapesUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
(Code typed in Mail, may or may not work as advertised.)
This has the added benefit of encoding other characters (including
'+' and '&') correctly.
