Hi All I am trying to search my website from within AMS and I have done it like this.

File.OpenURL("http://www.mydomain.com/categories.php?+Input1", SW_SHOWNORMAL);


I have a button with this action onpress and I also have a input object called Input1

I would like to beable to search my website from the text entered in Input1

Can anyone please point me in the right direction?

Thank in advance.

Hi, try putting this on your button, hope that helps:

HTTP.Submit("http://www.mydomain.com/categories.php", Input.GetText("Input1"), SUBMITWEB_GET, 20, 80, nil, nil);

Thank for the quick relpy Corey,

Seems I am getting an error with this one.

On Click, Line2 must be of type table.

Any ideas?

Thanks

HTTP.Submit("http://www.mydomain.com/categories.php?"..Input.GetText("Input1"), SUBMITWEB_GET, 20, 80, nil, nil);

Yep, sorry, my mistake. Brett's code is easier anyhow, that'll work for you... :)

Thanks Brett,

I seem to be having a bit of trouble with this one.

I am getting the same error.

On Click, Line 1: Argument 2 Must be of type table.

Is there a way of doing it if i store my Input1 in a string?

Thanks

HTTP.Submit("http://www.mydomain.com/categories.php?"..Input.GetText("Input1"), {test="nothing"}, SUBMITWEB_GET, 20, 80, nil, nil);

Thanks for your help Corey, Brett :yes

Much appreciated.

I managed to do it like this.

File.OpenURL("http://www.mydomain.com/categories.php?id="..Input.GetText("Input1"), SW_SHOWNORMAL);

Would'nt of managed it without the additional ..Input.GetText Never used that one before

Thanks again Guys.
