Passing textbox string value in a url

[DACandFrontPage]

How do I pass a textbox string value by hitting a Submit button and go to
another page where the url of that page is the text box string value? For
example, my text box value is "test" and after hitting "Submit" I need to
goto the page - www.sample.com/test.asp where test.asp is the text box value
with .asp added on the end.

Hi Derek,

<form onsubmit="this.action = this.T1.value + '.asp'; return true;" >

Note the above is not very robust.

From your response I cannot figure out what is the command structure. My
problem is similiar. If anyone has an answer I'd like to hear it.


I would like to get a simple form where the user can enter data and get the
corresponding url. The constant would be
http://mycompanyintranet/drawings/UserEnterData.

I thought this would be fairly easy but I keep getting
http://mycompanyintranet/drawings/?=t1=UserEnterData

Here is the code is used.
<form method="Get" action="http://gnc3/drawings/">

<p><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><input type="submit"
value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!!
