JavaScript - Newbie Help: Search Bar Opening Link
Hi there,
Ive been asked to find out something in work and I hope someone can help me with this. I am looking to put a search box within a website. Users in work will be searching by 1 of 50 keywords, and each of these key words relates to a different web page that I want the search to open. For Example, typing 'one' in search bar opens link 'one.htm', typing 'two' in search bar opens link 'two.htm' and so on. Ideally it would be great if the seach bar will autocomplete text as well, but anything will be of great help to me!! Is it possible to get a code to do this? As Im a relative newbie, any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Many Thanks Glen Similar TutorialsHi there Im a relative newbie and am trying to have a searchbar that users can complete, with the text entry being from a pre-defined list. The hope is that a new page will open with the link that relates to the search bar entry. Im using an Autocomplete code but cant work out how to get the link part to work. See below code Code: <html> <head> <script src="jquery-latest.js"></script> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/demo/main.css" type="text/css" /> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.css" type="text/css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.bgiframe.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/lib/jquery.dimensions.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://dev.jquery.com/view/trunk/plugins/autocomplete/jquery.autocomplete.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function(){ var data = "092 610 343 505 Utilities".split(" "); $("#example").autocomplete(data); }); var data = [ {text:'Link A', url:'/page2'}, {text:'Link B', url: '/page2'} ]; $("...").autocomplete(data, { formatItem: function(item) { return item.text; } }).result(function(event, item) { location.href = item.url; }); </script> </head> <body> Number: <input id="example" /><p></p> </body> </html> Can someone help me complete this code? For example, how can I change the code so that a text entry of "092" opens "www.google.com" when I hit enter after text entry? Your help with this is greatly appreciated Glen ok so here what i want to do (im a noob): i want a dropdown menu i want a button (go) i want ten different items in the dropdown menu if i choose the first item and click go i want a new page to open in the same window if i choose the second item and click go i want to a different page to open in the same window and so on all ten items lead to a different link when i click go....how do i do this?? thanks!! I am new to javascript and am trying to make a script that would open a link every xx randomly seconds. So far I have come up with this after searching: Code: <script> function reloadMe() { window.location.reload(); } function getInterval(){ var lowerBound = 30; var upperBound = 60; var randNum = Math.floor((upperBound-lowerBound+1)*Math.random()+lowerBound) * 1000; return randNum; } var interval = getInterval(); var srcInterval = setInterval("reloadMe()",interval); </script> This works on refreashing a page every xx seconds between 30 and 60 seconds. But it does not open a link. Is it possible to make a script that opens a link every xx seconds at random. It would be even greater if it can exclude certian times of the day, or can that be done with a cron job? Hi everyone, I was assigned to find out how to do this for my work. We were hoping for a javascript (but it could be PHP or other comparable format). Instead of the search function searching the website, we would like it to search a small database full of information. I have been reading for days now and have just gotten more confused. One thing I read (hopefully it was true) is that you can save a database as an HTML, then convert HTML to .JS which javascript will run. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Jeremy from Farmco I have a script but the script links to the email link, I need it to link the email but I also want to add the image of the email for people who do not have JS. How would I do this?

This script is a search engine, when you look for something say the word "titanic" , he shows you a list of results with numbers, being the first link with the higher number (kinda like a score), and then after u click the link you want he goes to the respective page. Now i want him to skip the results page, and directly open the first link that he founds on the page. The Script __________________________ <!-- Begin var item = new Array(); // Just enter as many additional pages that you want to search, then fill in he // additional listings for each page. // "Page Name","path","Page Title","Many,Key,Words","Descriptive Comments" c=0; item[c]=new Array("centerif.htm","","titanic","index,main,start,home,front","Demonstration search engine data about an imagined but probable internet site."); c++; item[c]=new Array("indexg.htm","","About Me","about,author,contact,email,who","Contact details and general information about the creator of the site and what the site is about."); c++; item[c]=new Array("links.htm","","Links page","links,more,where,similar,friends","Links to my favourite sites which I find interesting.

Hi all!, I'm having a few challenges trying to create a link to a "new" search from a database search results page. This maybe a better example: My goal is: To allow website visitors to searches site for i.e. "Dog Collars", the results page lists every "dog collar" and store that carries "dog collars" (in database). At that point I would like to have links (on the results page) to all brands of "dog collars" and stores that carry "dog collars". I would like to then be able to click on a "brand" (text link) of "dog collars" and then generate a new results page that lists all store and vendor information. thank you in advance! Erick p.s. this is a link to a site that has a similar featu http://69.0.211.58/~pubexpress/ami/html/index.html Hi, I'm really new to Javascript. Recently in my IT class, we made a HTML page which would open a popup box, where the user could enter a key word. When the user pressed enter, the page would navigate to a specific page. The code we used was: Code: <script language = "JavaScript"> where = window.prompt ("Please tell me where you would like to go."); switch (where){ case "Digg" : window.location = "http://www.digg.com" ; break; default: window.location = "http://www.google.com" ; } </script> What I am hopeing to do, is implement this code on my workplaces server, and have the keywords link to other html documents within the server. However when I tested this, for some reason the links are not working. Can this actually be done? Am I missing something silly? Are there any other ways of doing this? Thanks in advance Ok so im new to javascript and I have a button in an interface for an app. It's like drag and drop and i want this button to link you to a certain website searching for what the user types in the searchField1 box. The button is button16. Such as you type dogs into the text box and you click the google button among other search engines and it will redirect you to a google search doing a search for dogs. But how do I make this button search google and search for whats in searchField1. I would really appreciate the help. Im looking everywhere to learn this but just cant find it. If you could tell me how or send me a link to a tutorial that would be great. Thanks! Here is the code: I don't know where and what to add to do that. Please help. In this case, Let's take Google Search as example: The code is JScript .NET, which is basically a .NET version of Javascript. Regardless of language, Anyone with appending type of skill can answer my question. This code is used in Fiddler(It's a Man-in-the-middle proxy) Code: if (oSession.uriContains("&q=")) // oSession is a Fiddler object session // uriContains() function, checks for case-insensitive string from the URI { var str = oSession.fullUrl; var sAppend = "test1+test2+test3"; if (!oSession.uriContains(sAppend)) { oSession.fullUrl = str.replace( "&q=","&q="+sAppend); } } For those who are confused, It says, If &q= is present in the URI, replace/append &q= with &q=test1+test2+test3 Problem: It appends test1+test2+test3 instantly, when it sees &q= in the URL. Basically, how do I make it wait until I click the submit/search button Thank you. Update: I heard about Onsubmit() event, but not really familiar with it. How do I use it? like, should I go to google source page and edit the form id? Also, Any other methods besides Onsubmit()? Hi Everyone! I have a website that I'm designing where I have the need to search multiple sites at specific times. By this I mean that In some cases, we would want to search only the internet using google, or only search the site that I've created (which currently uses the jse_search.js solution), or only our company's website. I currently have four different search boxes that will search either the internet, the internal site, a separate internal site, or a third-party website, which all working fine. The problem is that the search boxes take up quite a bit of space, and the layout is becoming cumbersome. Is there a way in Javascript I could use a single search box and a drop-down list to select which method to use? The code I'm currently using is below. With the exception of the Google search function, I've modified some of the site names to general site names and paths to preserve the company's anonymity: Code in the <head> tag: Code: <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript" src="jse_form.js"> </script> Code in the <body> tag: Code: <!--Begin Internal Site Search 1!--> <div> <p style="text-align: center;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td><form name="jse_Form" onsubmit="search_form(jse_Form);return false"> <input type="text" name="d" size="30"> </tr></td> <tr><td> <input type="button" value="Internal Site Search 1" onclick="search_form(jse_Form)"> </form> </tr></td> </table> <!--End Internal Site Search 1!--> <!--Begin Internal Site Search 2!--> <div> <p style="text-align: center;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td> <!--webbot bot="Search" S-Index="all" S-Fields S-Text="Search for:" I-Size="20" S-Submit="Start Search" S-Clear="Reset" S-TimestampFormat="%m/%d/%Y" TAG="BODY" b-useindexserver="1" startspan --> <form action="http://sitesearch2.idq" method="POST"><input type="text" name="UserRestriction" size="30" value> </tr></td> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"> <input type="submit" value="Internal Site Search 2"></form> </form> <!--webbot bot="Search" i-checksum="4210" endspan --> </td></tr> </table> </div> <!--End Internal Site Search!--> <!--Begin Google Search!--> <form method="get" action="http://www.google.com/search"> <div> <p style="text-align: center;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td> <input type="text" name="q" size="30" maxlength="233" value="" /> </tr></td> <tr><td align="center"> <input type="submit" value="Google Search" /></td></tr> </table> </div> </form> <!--End Google Search!--> <!--Begin Third Party Search!--> <form id="keywordSearchForm" method="get" action="http://www.site3.html"> <div> <p style="text-align: center;"> <table border="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr><td> <input class="input" type="text" name="keyword" size="30" /> </tr></td> <tr><td align="center"> <input type="hidden" name="origin" value="keywordsearch" /><input id="go" class="button" tabindex="0" type="submit" value="Third Party Search" /> </td></tr> </table> </div> </form> <!--End Third Party Site Search!--> Hi experts, is it possible via Javascript to search certain websites with certain keywords without having to use specific search engines? example search only the following: 1. www.yyy.com 2. www.aaa.com 3. www.zzz.com for the keyword "Laminat" and open the sites accordingly. thx is there a way in HTML or Javascript to open a new window and force it to be a new Window, not a new tab? and also avoid popup blockers??

Basically, I want to have a textbox where I type in a filename and then click submit and it will open that document. For example, I need to open a PDF document... I need to have a text box where I can input "test1" for example, click "GO" and it will add the "C:/test/" + textbox value + ".pdf" and open it in the browser. I could do it in PHP but this is going to run on a local machine with no serverside so I assume JS will be the way forward. Any ideas? Many Thanks MJFCAD I want to open a new tab "http://www.example.com/" when the user presses a key. How can this be done?
