Visit web address entered into form

[David Kadavy]

I am creating an active desktop for my office ( A webpage that sits on
everyone's desktop, but doesn't have all of the features of a browser
window). It includes two frames: one for a menu, another for content.

One of the features I would like to have in the menu is a form that
will make the content frame visit the site entered into this form. How
do I do this.

I really appreciate your help.

Thank you.

Have a look here: http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_window.asp

Instead, though, why not investigate the "Address" toolbar on the standard
desktop? Right-click on an empty bit of the taskbar, and pick Toolbars,
then Address. Sounds like what you want with no coding!

<form name='site'>
<input
type='text'
name='url'
/>
<input
type='submit'
value='Go!'
onclick="window.theframe.location = document.site.url.value"
/>
</form>
