Get data from another page

[queerfm]

Hi i want to make a page that allows a user to type a number or a word like
cat
and it goes to http://www.yoursite.com/cat
or 1
and it goes to http://www.yoursite.com/1

It needs to be so that it can allow fullstops and numbers

Thanks

With PHP?

If it's HTML, then you just make up a directory and redirect.

Javascript could be really easy...
<form onSubmit="window.location=window.location+this.page.value;">
<input type="text" id="page">
<input type="submit" value="go">
</form>

Using a PHP backup would be a good idea too.


The code is untested but I THIIIIINK it should work...

I think he said folder redirection.

[djr33]

He said page that allows a user to type something then go there....


Note: numbers are allowed. What's a full stop? Period? that, I think, might work, but it's not expected in URLs. You can, however, convert with javascript, but I'm not sure how exactly. I believe it's str.replace(params).

Yeah, I don't know why I thought folder redircetion.
I seem to be losing it now.

Well, I think it's

<form onSubmit="window.location=this.elements['page'].value;">
<input type="text" id="page">
<input type="submit" value="go">
</form>
