  to create a form that will take you here:

  http://www.jupiterimages.com/Sea…

  onsubmit, where "dog" is the value of a text input field?

  i suspect this could be done with javascript somehow...

  basically i'm trying to put a jupiterimages search field on a website, but they use some weird system i can't figure out so i'm trying to use a workaround based off of the url string their form outputs...

  does that make any sense?

  isn't that a search function using a database?

  weird, it truncated my URL. this is what the last part of the URL looks like:

  /Search/Image#dog

  i just can't figure out how to add a term like "dog" after a hashmark like that

  it may simply have the supporting script in the background not so much search anything but just list any item with that tag.

  this probably isn't making any sense. i'm trying to hack the search URL they use by creating a new form of my own

  • yeah, won't work.– airey

  here:

  <form id="searchform">
  <input type="text" id="searchinput" />
  </form>
  (using jquery)
  <script type="text/javascript">
  $("#searchform").submit(function... {
  document.location.href = "http://www.jupiterimages.com/Se... + $("#searchinput").val();
  });
  </script>
  there.

  wtf. the line that starts with $("#searchform") should end with "function() {"

  and the line that starts with document.location should have "http://www.jupiterimages.com/Se... in the quotes.

  fuck, my code keeps getting messed up by qbn. anyway, put the whole url in quotes in that line, ending with "/Search#" and it should work.

  you gotta include jquery on your page, and flesh out the form with a submit button, too.

  you can do it without jquery also but i can't be arsed to write it out. jquery is my crutch.

  oops - i forgot - the end of your script block should look like this:
  return false;
  });
  </script>

  if you add that return false in there it will work fine.

  it's also best if you host the jquery js on your own site (:
