Apps newb question

i have been trying to learn android for a whole 2 days now and i am trying to make just a bunch of little programs to get use to it but i am having a problem with this one as it keeps force closing on me.

it happens when i select case 3, it is suppose to go to another class where i inpot something into a edittext field and it will then search google for that but it never even gets to the class. I traced it to where i see that it crashes when it gets to the startActivity(intent) in the search() function. what did i miss.

i attached my code:

public class hellolistview extends ListActivity {
    
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
      super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

      String[] countries = getResources().getStringArray(R.array.countries_array); //gets list from strings.xml
      setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, countries));

      ListView lv = getListView();
      lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true);

      lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
        public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,
            int position, long id) {
          // When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text
          Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), ((TextView) view).getText(),
              Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
      });
      
        
        getListView().setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE);
        getListView().setTextFilterEnabled(true);
        getListView().setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
            
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1, int arg2, long arg3){
                switch(arg2){
                case 0:
                    startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse("http://www.android.com/")));
                    break;
                case 1:
                    startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("content://contacts/people/")));
                    break;
                case 2:
                    startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,Uri.parse("tel:12345678910")));
                
                    break;
                case 3:
                    search();                    
                    break;
                case 4:
                    startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VOICE_COMMAND));
                    break;
                default:
                    break;                            
                }
            }
        });
    }
    
    private void search(){
    Intent intent = new Intent(hellolistview.this, search_web.class);
    [COLOR=Black]hellolistview.this.startActivity(intent);[/COLOR] [COLOR=Red]throws exception here[/COLOR]
    }
    
}

public class search_web extends Activity {
    
    EditText helloName;
    
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.search);
        
        Button searchButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.Button01);
        searchButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
            public void onClick(View view){
                
                helloName = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.EditText01);
                final String wsearch = helloName.getText().toString(); //saves user input to search for
                
                Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_WEB_SEARCH);
                intent.putExtra(SearchManager.QUERY, wsearch);
                startActivity(intent);
            }
        });
