HI i'm a real newbie with creating web sites and have come across a problem.
I want users to be able to enter their xbox live gamertag into a text field and then when they click the submit button for it to take them to a certain webpage with their name text at the end of the url.
the site i want to link to is http://haloimpulse.com/sig/stats.swf?playername=(this is where i want there input to go). An example is on http://triplekill.com then search on stats.


please help i'm really confused. I think i need a parameter but not sure what to do. Thanks in advance

Try this -- it should work.

<FORM METHOD="get" action="http://haloimpulse.com/sig/stats.swf">
<input name="playername">
<input type="submit" value="What ever you want the button to say">

Thankyou SOOOO Much it worked perfectly. Couldn't believe how simple the code was in the end i was trying all sorts lol

no problem.

sorry again but i've had to change the file to a php and now the code doesn't work Here's a link http://houseofhalo.co.uk/stats.php Does the code need changing, i got a bit lost when i tried. Please reply.

your website containts this code:

<form name="form1" method="get" action="http://haloimpulse.com/sig/stats.swf">
<input type="text" name="textfield">
<input name="playername" type="submit" value="Enter Gamertag">
</form>

replace it with this:

<form name="form1" method="get" action="http://haloimpulse.com/sig/stats.swf">
<input type="text" name="playername">
<input type="submit" value="Enter Gamertag">
</form>

thanks again it worked and i also managed to adapt the code to work for clan name. Digi duck
