Passing search query in url with HTML

Hello,
I know how to pass the search query in php:
$searchquery = ($_GET['query']);
echo "<form action=\"/news2.php\" method=\"get\"><h3><font size=\"5\" color=\"#00FFFF\">Next page of News Articles about</font><input type=\"submit\" name=\"query\" value=\"$searchquery\"></h3></p></form>";
Could you please tell me how to do this with HTML code?

Thanks

 

you can't do it with JUST html.

You will need to utilize either php or javascript to make it happen.

-P

 

It's impossible to do it with html?
Could you tell me how to do it with javascript?
Thanks

 

Just to be sure we're on the same page here, you're talking about passing a variable (in this case a search query) from one page to another, correct?

If so here are a few good articles on the subject (utilizing javascript):

Yes.
Thanks, I'll go and have a look.

 

if what your searching for is in a database, i'd just use php/mysql.

a simple mysql_query will do just fine.
