Just to add some more detail: This question asks about the SVN file 
search/templates/NMZ.head.php_tmpl line 31 which reads

<a href="{cgi}"><?=_("[How to search]")?></a>

At runtime, the href target "{cgi}" evaluates to 

<a href="/search/">[How to search]</a>

The PHP variable {cgi} is just exactly the same as the overall action of the 
form, which is set in the same file in line 25:

<form method="get" action="{cgi}">

In effect, pressing the "How to search" link gives you the same as pressing 
the "Search" button with an empty search. I wonder whether this is really 
intended. As Frank already said: This link should probably lead to the 
NMZ.tips page, especially because I don't see any link anywhere else that 
would lead to that page...
