A href question

[scribbler]

Can anyone please tell me if it is possible to do the following (bearing in mind I'm quite new to this web thing...

I have a javascript variable "Total" which populates a text box with it's value <input type="text" name="box" id="box4">

What I am trying to do is to send this value to my next page. I have done this previously using ASP by the following

<a href="techspec.asp?<%LinkId=Id%>>Tech Data</td>

but don't know javascript and how to pass the variable on.

You would need to ask this in the JavaScript forum:

forum216

as JavaScript would be required to modify the link details. Incidentally, you might want to search the FAQs for that forum - I have a feeling something similar was posted a while back.

Hope this helps,
Dan

Thanks for the reply Dan I did look at some of the newer postings in the javascript forum but didn't find what I was looking for. Maybe my search needs ammending I'll take another peek

<form action="techspec.asp" method="get">
<input type="text" name="box" id="box4" />
<input type="submit" value="Send" />
</form>

This will append a querystring to techspec.asp
i.e. techspec.asp?box=x

where x is the value in the text field.
