i want to make a web form and i need to know how to link it...i'm not very technical and i haven't made the form yet but i will be using dreamweaver most likely. The Form will allow users to select their birth year and then when they click go! i want them to go to a new page specific to which box they checked in the form. If anyone on here knows how to do that or knows any sites that explain the linking process in detail for beginners i would appreciate it.:o

Re: Linking A Form

 

Come on people...someone must know an online resource that explains it...or personally know how to do it in dreamweaver. I have posted this here and on yahoo answers and no-one will touch the question...i really need to know and all i can find on the web are auto generators that allow people to imput info about themselves and it will send me an email...and that isn't what i want...that doesn't even have a use. I will be making a form (or gettting) in dreamweaver and it will allow users to select a year (on a list of 5 or 10, i haven't decided yet) and when they click go! a new page will open with info specific to the number they selected. i need to know how to make the form open this new page as dreamweaver doesn't have tutorials for that and i can't find the info anywhere on the web when searching. The site will be html...i may use css.

Hi,

 

I think this is what you are after?? Have a look and try it out..

 

User selects their birth year, clicks go, and is taken to the relevant page.

 

<html>
<head>
 <title>Simple Form</title>
</head>

  <body>

     <form action="" method="post" id="frmDetails" name="frmDetails">
     
     <label for="selBirthYear">Select your birth year: </label>
     <select name="selBirthYear" id="selBirthYear">
       <option value="1989.html">1989</option>     
       <option value="1990.html">1990</option>
       <option value="1991.html">1991</option>
       <option value="1992.html">1992</option>
     </select>
     
     <br clear="all" />
     
     <input type="button" name="btnSubmit" value="Go" id="btnSubmit" onclick="window.location = document.frmDetails.selBirthYear.value" />
     
     </form>

  </body>
</html>
