Hi there.

Im using a search for with a listbox that contains a list a Cities. Once the search button is pressed, i want the form to open a new asp page that contains the value of the listbox (the city selected, of course).

For example, the main page, where the search form is located is:

http://www.example.com

And if the city "Seville" is selected, i want the asp to redirect to :

http://www.example.com/Seville.asp

Could you please help me???

THANKS IN ADVANCE,

Sergio

This is code I use for a link, rather than a button. But it might be a start.

This is the html for the link - note the added onclick event.

  
<a href="http://www.example.com" id="controlId" onclick="JavaScript: return showCity(this);">Show City</a>

And here is the Javascript for the showCity(controlReference) function. You'll need to replace the "CitiesComboBox" string with the Id that Codecharge gives to your Cities combobox/list.
  
function showCity(ctl)  
{  
        var cityName= document.getElementById("CitiesComboBox").value;  
        if (cityName == "")  
        {  
                alert("please select a city");  
                return false;  
        } else  
        {  
                ctl.href = "http://www.example.com/" + cityName + ".asp";  
        }  
  
        return;  
}  
So, when you click the link, this function checks the selected value of the combobox. If it's blank (nothing selected) you get an alert. If not, it builds a URL with the cityName at the end, and puts it in the link's href property.

To make this work for a button rather than a link, you could try replacing "ctl.href" with "window.location.href " and replace the final "return" with "return false"
