Text value submit redirect

[ted_chou12]

Can you have a input box, and when the user hits submit (which is beside the input field), the page redirects, the url contains the input information

for example, if I type string, it will redirect me to url like search.php?q=string

 

For certain header reasons, I cant do this in php, so I thought javascript might be able to achieve the same thing.

Thanks

<input type="text" id="the_field" /> <button type="button" onclick="location.href='http://example.com/page.php?q='+document.getElementById('the_field').value">Go</button>
