Load Webpage using form information

[Lloyd Codrington]

Morning People

Can anyone send me in the right direction with regards using a form value to
load a web page? I want to have a form on a page that simply ask for the
user to input their post code and from there once they press submit the
relevent page with information in their post code area will load.

Thanks in anticipation
Lloyd

if using asp

then you take the values passed and lookup the info from the database
http://www.powerasp.com/content/database/using_select.asp

granted.. you need some know how and a database full of relevent info..
things like this just dont happen on their own

Hi Ken,
I was hoping there would be a way of avoding asp etc by using a some script
to collect a variable from a form and then that variable in turn is used to
load a page. Is that type of thing possible with FP?

Hi Stefan,

Have just come back to work so sorry if you expected a response earlier.
Anyway the link you left seems like it may resolve this issue and a whole lot
more. I may never have to return to this forum. Thanks mate. Have a nice
day.
