OK, let me see if I can explain this.
What I would like to do is type a number into a textbox and have that number inserted into a web address.
Like: webpage.com/info from textbox.html
Can this be done in JS?

Sorry for the obscurity

:confused:

Seen the link. Redirected to another site (www.adultsite-chat.com).

Still don't understand your question :(

Ignore the link :) it was an example. I just want to be able to insert the info from the text box into the link.

Sorry for the redirect it wasn't intended

I think you are trying to do this:


<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function testScript()
{
document.myForm.output.value = "http://www.somesite.com/" + document.myForm.linkNum.value + ".html";
}

</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="myForm">
<input type="text" name="linkNum" value="01">
<input type="button" value="Test Script" onClick="testScript();">
<input type="text" name="output">
</form>
</body>
</html>


If thats anywhere close let me know.

I think this is what (s)he was looking for:


<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function testScript()
{
location.replace("http://www.somesite.com/" + document.myForm.linkNum.value + ".html");
}

</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="myForm">
<input type="text" name="linkNum" value="01">
<input type="button" value="Test Script" onClick="testScript();">
</form>
</body>
</html>

Yeah, I just didn't feel like going down the road of actually replacing the page. :)

One more question ( I hope somebody see's this )
How would I get the results from the above script to open into a new browser window.
