no idea why it seemed to work, guess i confused the browser windows.
testcase:
<table><tr><a href="test"><td>test</td><td></td></a></tr></table>
this is what the site does, it spans an ahref over multiple tds. doesnt work in
ns 4.79 and mozilla. no valid html.
also wrong is the dtd <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML//EN"> this is
html2 and doesnt allow tables eg.
informed site owner of these things

Just tried it again. The site says "Zum Lesen klicken Sie bitte auf die Schlagzeile.", but still nothing happens.
@KCastleman: Please open a separate bug for your problem!

Btw: Does not work in Konqueror either. Has anyone tested with IE?
Yes, works in a recent Internet Explorer ...

No, the site did not change it's layout. umschau.com ist now a start page for multiple free papers, but http://www.umschau.de/umschau/ seems to be exactly the page that was on http://www.umschau.com/ before.

However, I cannot confirm the wrong behavior at the moment, because they seem to have other, additional problems: 

"Active Server Pages error 'ASP 0126'

Include file not found

/umschau/suchen.asp, line 2

The include file 'Connections/BA47_Artikel.asp' was not found."

Search works, bug appears as before.
URL: http://www.umschau.com/ → http://www.umschau.de/umschau/
w3 validator says:
Result: 1141 Errors, 4 warning(s) 
what they do is:
<a href="arc_zeigen.asp?id=252" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" OnMouseOver="MM_swapImage('0','','images/pf_r.gif',1)"> 
<td><img src="images/dummy.gif" width="7" height="13" name="0" border="0"></td>
<td valign="top" align="left" width="80">23.09.00</td>
<td valign="top" align="left" width="260">Henstedt-Ulzburg</td>
<td valign="top" align="left" width="935">Jugendschutzbeauftragte lädt ein:
"Komm mit - Hau ab"</td>
</a> 

so this breaks down to
<table>
<tr>
<a href="f00">
<td>a</td>
<td>b</td>
</a>
</tr>
</table>
which is plain invalid html and we dont recognize an href at all.
Severity: critical → normal
Priority: P2 → --
This seems fixed to me. 

Going to http://www.umschau.de/umschau/ and entering "Theater" into the search box, then clicking on a result opens a page.
