Updating HTML code dynamically and calling a URL

Question

Hi All,
I have the following requirement -
Consider the below HTML code:
In the above code, the URL >>
https://secure3.i-doxs.net/nytimes/BillaccessView.asp has to be called and this should PICK UP the values from the above code - For example: Client and ABCCO. In other words, the page that is going to be displayed by specifying the URL should use the values that are dynamically generated and specified in the above code. 
Please let me know if you have any inputs on how to achieve this.
Best Regards,
Rajeev

Hi there ,
i have a solution for your problem as follows :
Do not mention the action in form tag ; do it as follows .
if you have a submit button then use following code in onclick even of submit as onClick="do_this()"  else use onsubmit="do_this()" in <form > tag .
Include the following <script> </script> in Head element .
the JS function do_this should be as follows :
<Script language="JavaScript">
function do_this()
   var w_ele;
   w_ele = document.getElementById('CLIENT') ;
   w_client = w_ele.value ; // this will give u the name entered in client text field ie. ABCCO in this case.
var w_url = "https://secure3.i-doxs.net/nytimes/BillaccessView.asp?w_clien="+ w_client ;
  w_form = document.getElementByID('FRM_MAIN');
  w_form.action = w_url ;
/*this will call the url as "https://secure3.i-doxs.net/nytimes/BillaccessView.asp?w_client=ABCCO" */
</script>
NOTE :
you need to define ID property for form and text element . currently you have used juse name property .
in the w_url , before' ? ' the name of the parameter in which you want to capture the dynamic client value in target should appear ( i have used w_client just as an example)
so modifications needed in ur HTML as :
<FORM name="frmMain"  id="FRM_MAIN" method="POST">
and
<TD> First Name: </TD><TD><INPUT type="text" id="CLIENT" name="Client" value="ABCCO" size="50" maxlength="32"></TD>
I am sure this will solve ur problem as i have done the same thing. if not then feel free to mail me at [email protected]
