[SOLVED] use search form

[kemper]

I would like to add a game_id search to my youth sports website.  Basically, it would be a single text area and search button to display game.php page.  game.php page is created to display as www.mysite.org/game.php?game_id=______.  How would I set up the search to drop game_id from search into my game.php query?

You would just set your form action to "GET", then it will automatically send the information through your URL. Just make sure the textareas name is "game_id".

How do I get this to into www.mysite.org/game.php?

<form method='GET'>
<p><input type='text' name='game_id' size='20'>
<input type='submit' value='Search' name='search'></p>
</form>

Try this:

 

<form action='game.php' method='GET'>
<p><input type='text' name='game_id' size='20'>
<input type='submit' value='Search' name='search'></p>
</form>
