Hi,

 

I'm trying to create a script that will redirect to a url from a form input.

 

Basically I have a page:

 

http://mydomain.com/page

(no .html or php etc)

 

and I have an input box on my site - I want someone to be able to type in Joe Blogs and I'm looking to simply redirect to:

 

http://mydomain.com/page/Joe%20Blogs

 

How can I do this?

A pure HTML form can't do that. You can use Javascript to emulate a form (not actually submitting a form but clicking the button to trigger Javascript which redirects) or have the form post to a PHP script with a regular, unfriendly URL and then have that script redirect to the friendly version.
