Hi all,

      I've a text box from which i need to transfer the values in text box to another page when i click a button. I've the following code but doesn't work. Please help.

 

  <input type=text name=search size=18 align=right>
<input type="button" target=menu value="Go" onclick="fifthframe('search')"> 

 

and the javascript function is :

 

function fifthframe(search)
	{
		parent.main.location.href="search_home.php?search="+search
	}

 

I don't know much about javascript. the text box value is to be transfered to a php page. Please help.

 

Regards,

Ramki.

Surely you should just be using a simple form for this, like:

 

<form action="search_home.php" method="get">
<input type="text" name="search" size=18 align="right">
<input type="submit" value="Go"> 
</form>
