jump menu, but not quite

mechro99 · Nov 12, 2004

Hi,

Thanks for all the help everyone on this board has provided. I've learned a lot here.

I've got a question about a variation on a jump menu idea. I would like to create an input text field in which a product serial number could be entered. When the submit button is pushed, the browser is directed a url composed of the serial number entered + .html. Is this possible?

The application is going to be on a CDROM catalog, so I didn't think asp server-side script w/ database would work.

Any ideas or tips?

Thanks,
Dan

Do something like this:

Code:

<html>
  <head>
  <script language="javascript">
  <!--
  function reDirect(p) {
    document.location = p + '.html';
  }
  </script>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form name="f">
      <input type="text" name="p" />
      <input type="button" onclick="reDirect(this.form.p.value);" value="go to page" />
    </form>
  </body>
</html>
