$_GET, Pre-stripping

[tsilenzio]

I have a form.. and after u press submit it submits values to the $_GET variable and the URL.. Well I was wondering if its possible to change the data AFTER the user clicks Submit.. but BEFORE the values actually get submited to the URL..

 

Basickly I want to strip coma's, and $'s from the textbox so in the URL it dosnt come up as %23 or what have u...

Javascript onsubmit action would be better

 

PHP can't adjust the query string for say on the load but you could fix the get VARS up and then header redirect with the fixed up (sorta sloppy)

 

If you want a neat url maybe you should look int processing with POST unless your form needs GET for caching reasons

I want GET so u can copy and paste the link and have the same settings as the person who gave the link lol

<script language="Javascript">
function chex(id){
var val = document.getElementById(id).value;
var newval = val.replace(/,/g,'');
var finished = newval.replace(/\$/gi,'');

document.getElementById(id).value = finished;
}
</script>

<form method="get" onSubmit="chex('txt');chex('txt2')">
<input type="text" name="txt" id="txt"><br>
<input type="text" name="txt2" id="txt2">
<input type="submit"></form>

 

tested and worked fine.

or, if you're worried about special characters in the URL, have a look at urldecode().
