Searches returning no results

Hi,

I recently came back to using xgoogle for a project and noticed that all of my searches were returning no results. I fixed the issue by changing line 289 in search.py to take a list of tags, i.e. results = soup.findAll(["div", "g"]) instead of the current line 289:

xgoogle/xgoogle/search.py

Line 289 in d80a4c1

results = soup.findAll('div','g')

Is this a known issue?

Thanks
