[RESOLVED] Need help: Using form validation to open target

**indygeer** · 05-22-2008, 02:27 PM

I have three radio buttons in a form (along with a lot of other information) when the user submits the form I want to open a new html page based on which of the radio buttons was checked. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I should say to that I am using this to build a mock of what a desired application will do so I do not care what happens to rest of the data in the form.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>redirect</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">

<script type="text/javascript">
function newDoc(f) {
for(var i=0; i<f.address.length; i++) {
    if(f.address[i].checked) {
        location.href='http://www.'+f.address[i].value+'/';
        break;
        }
    }
return false;
}
</script>

<style type="text/css">
label {display:block;} 
</style>

</head>
<body>
<form action="#" method="" name="form1" onsubmit="return newDoc(this);">
<div>
    <label>google<input name="address" type="radio" value="google.com"></label>
    <label>msn<input name="address" type="radio" value="msn.com"></label>
    <label>webdeveloper<input name="address" type="radio" value="webdeveloper.com"></label>
<button type="submit">submit</button>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>

That is terrific. I was totally going in the wrong direction. Thank you.
