web browser control "form action"

[asianboi]

Hi,

In my application, I have a web browser control and load up a local
html page. Within the html page, the following code exists. However,
when I click on the button that invokes the 'form action', nothing
happens. I'd like the event to spawn a new browser window. Is there
an event I should be catching?

<!-- search box -->

<form action="http://dogbert.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults"
method="get"></form>
<tbody><tr bgcolor="#9fa5aa">
<td colspan="2" align="center" valign="top"><b><font color="#ffffff"
face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-1">Search
Abebooks</font></b></td>
</tr>
<tr><td align="right" bgcolor="#eeeeee" valign="middle"><font
face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial" size="1"><b>Author:</b></font></td>
<td align="left" bgcolor="#eeeeee"><input name="an" size="12"
type="text"></td></tr>
<tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"><td align="right" valign="middle"><font
face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial" size="1"><b>Title:</b></font></td>
<td align="left"><input name="tn" size="12" type="text"></td></tr>
<tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"><td align="right" valign="middle"><font
face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial" size="1"><b>Keyword:</b></font></td>
<td align="left"><input name="sn" size="12" type="text"></td></tr>
<tr bgcolor="#eeeeee">
<td align="right" valign="middle"><b><font face="Verdana, Arial,
Helvetica, sans-serif" size="-2">ISBN:</font></b></td>
<td align="left"><input name="isbn" size="12" type="text"></td>
</tr>
<tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"><td colspan="2" align="center" valign="top"
width="100%">
<input name="imageField" src="getting-started.shtml_files/findBook.gif"
border="0" height="19" type="image" width="82"></td></tr>
<tr bgcolor="#eeeeee"><td colspan="2" align="center" valign="top"><font
face="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial" size="1">Search box not working?<br>
<a
href="http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchEntry/?cm_ven=nl&amp;cm_cat=com-2005-11&amp;cm_pla=promo&amp;cm_ite=advse">Try

</tr>

Thanks in advance...

No one else has answered yet so I will give it a go, despite not having
2005 yet.

This line:
<form
action="http://dogbert.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults"method="get">

There's no space between the ACTION and the METHOD.

Normally I'd throw in some javascript to show a new window, but not
sure how that's gonna affect your web browser control/app.

This probably didn't help, but you didn't get any other answers yet so
I thought I'd try.

Thanks for the response =)

I was able to get it work a little while ago ... what was interesting
is the first time I saved this page locally (save complete webpage), I
used FireFox to do so (then loaded the file up in the web browser in my
application). Then, I tried saving the page through IE and that seems
to have fixed the problem! Any idea why this might yield different
results?

Thanks

MS doesn't play well with others?
No idea sorry!
