Hello,

I am in need of a solution to appending a URL that would address 2 issues.

I want to setup a text box and a submit button on a page that when text is entered into the box and the submit button is clicked, the contents of the tex box are appended to the end of a URL and the user is directed to that page.

Example: the url would be somthing like this

http://www.example.com/path/to/file.aspx?id=1111&category=

And if a user entered the word "Books" into the text box and clicked the submit button the user would be directed to this URL - http://www.example.com/path/to/file.aspx?id=1111&category=Books.

Also, in the event the user didn't enter anything into the box, or enter text that didn't match a category, I need to redirect them back to the page with the text box and submit button or to a custom error page.

I am sure I could explain this better if I was a little more experienced but I'm not.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Switch your form method to GET, and name the text box "category" and you are done.

Great!

Thanks for the help.
