Thank you very much, Takayuki: it worked! In fact I tried with Firefox and even with Reconq (KDE browser) and I had no problems at all.
I then tried your sugested option (A) and it worked too, which I'm reporting beneath hoping it might be helpful to someone else. 1. cd into _build/html 2. launch python -m SimpleHTTPServer 3. access localhost at port 8000 and try a search: it will work properly.
