try
<input type=hidden name="cs" value="iso-8859-1">
with this the german umlauts are displayed correct and you also can so searches on queries with umlauts.
as kir said, value must match exactly the value in your config files. i think there is also a alias
if it doesn't work i can send you my configs (those parts dealing with charsets)
