I have a textbox somewhat like the main google search textbox. When you start typing, the javascript triggers a php script that offers suggestions that you can click on . That part works fine. However, I also want the user to be able to enter text and then just submit it--analagous to rejecting Google's hints and typin in your own search term. Right now, I am trying to do this in html and it is not working. Here is my code:
<form action="mail.php" method="post"><input type="text" name="maddress" size="30" onkeyup="showResult(this.value)"><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Email"></form>
Basically, the javascript within the onkeyup works fine. However, the form is not posting the value in the textbox" to the php script. Perhaps I have a typo somewhat but I can't find it. or maybe the onkeyup is preventing the form from posting...
Would appreciate any suggestions.
