# Help! Comments aren’t working!

 * I just changed my site layout to the Illacrimo theme. The comments worked earlier
   today, but for some reason they aren’t anymore. When you click to submit the 
   comment, there’s a “Not found” 404 error. The URL shows up as something like 
   this:
 * [http://myspace-crash-codes.com/blog/?s=Search…&comment=asdfa&SubmitComment.x=111&SubmitComment.y=18&comment_post_ID=211&_wp_unfiltered_html_comment=99a2be025d](http://myspace-crash-codes.com/blog/?s=Search…&comment=asdfa&SubmitComment.x=111&SubmitComment.y=18&comment_post_ID=211&_wp_unfiltered_html_comment=99a2be025d)
 * Any ideas? Thanks.
 * Edit: I just found out it has something to do with the search bar. When I took
   out the search code, comments work. Here is the search code:
 * <form id=”searchform” method=”get” action=”<?php bloginfo(‘home’); ?>”>
    <input
   type=”text” class=”key” value=”Search…” name=”s” id=”s” onfocus=”if(this.value
   ==’Search…’)this.value=”” onblur=”if(this.value==”)this.value=’Search…'” />

 * Is that it? There was no closing </form> tag?

 * Yeah, all I had to do was add the </form> tag and it worked.
