[Javascript] passing values in a link

You need to tell the form which page it is submitting the data too. 

<form name="myform" method="Get" action="thispage.asp"> 

You can pass data from page to page using your method (by building up the 
querystring yourself) but in this case there is no need. 

hope this helps.

Hi everyone, I need some help, I am trying to pass a key value in a href 
link, I have done this before and I just don't get why is not working, 
the truth is I am a begginer in jscript, bellow I have my code, when I 
click the "take me there" link to de default.htm page I want to pass a 
key with the value of the T1.field on it, instead of this the link take 
me to the default page with a null key something like default.htm?key=, 
yet when I put a default value to the key (something like 
href="default.htm?key=" + 4) the result is still the same, what am I 
doing rong?
