My Post #6 ^ says "You're welcome."
Hahaha. Thank you too!
Btw, what's the difference between this procedure and just turning it off and back on?
Turning OFF (using the slider to OFF) is just that, powering OFF. The procedure I described is more like a reboot in that it puts everything back in order, like when you restart your computer. It's also useful after installing a lot of app updates in case something is acting wonky.

And acting wonky, it was!
How you fix this problem:- On Iphone go to :- Settings-Safari-Advanced-Website Data, Remove All Website Data.
Now re-try.

I updated last night and Google images is also acting up for me but my cousin that did not update her iphone 4s has the same issue like me. So it's def not the update that was the issue. I guess we have to wait and see
So I downloaded another web browser, Mercury and tested it out and I was able to click an image and go to the next page on this web browser so it is Safari that is acting you. Just wanted to update you guys!
NOPE that didn't work either....and mine just stopped working today...yesterday it was working fine, reseting, deleting cookies...does not work...your solution is just another method of deleting cookies
Just found a solution: go into safari settings and change your search engine to one of the other choices (bing or yahoo) then change it back to google...I did this and now it's working

I never noticed the tabs across the top of Google search on my iPhone 4 - thanks for the tip!! My "images" search works just fine and I'm also on 5.1.1. I do have cookies enabled until they expire. Maybe that has something to do with your issue?
Yesss!! I fixed it! No joke. I went in the root filesystem and did some simple tweaking in the searchengine pref plist. Now it works. I tried 4 iphones and an ipad to make sure thi was working. Anyone who want me to explain. Send me a message duzeaux@live.nl
But before you do, make sure you have a program that lets you browse your filesystem. I used diskaid free version. There are plenty of those tools.
