TOPIC: Goto URL Textbox & Button

Goto URL Textbox & Button 3 years 10 months ago #41376

I need to create a simple form with a text box and a button, when the user clicks that button it takes them to a URL (in the same window) with the value that they put in the textbox.

Example: Textbox: Colour -> Submit -> myurl.com/red

Any help would be really appreciated.

Thank you

Create a dropdown (named url) with your options like this
myurl.com/red|red
myurl.com/blue|blue
myurl.com/green|green

Be sure to use the myurl with the full http:// or https:// or it will give a page not found error
then in form properties/scripts called on form process add this
if (isset($_POST['form']['url'])) {
    $url  = $_POST['form']['url'][0];
 
    header("Location: ".$url);
    exit;
}
If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, then you obviously don't understand the situation!
