put a variable in a web address

[JZL003]

I am trying to make a all purpose framed page with everything i need, all pages that can revert to a larger frame and i have a menu on the side. I wanted a quick way to type in a book name and see the corresponding google books page. I dont even need to replace spaces with %20 as it compensates. I can get the form to store the variable but cant get it into the web address.

 

P.S. Any cool functions or ideas for things to add to page are appreciated.

sorry my php is very rusty. i dont understand how that helps. Could in javascript use this script:

 

var searchentry=harry potter

var webaddress="http://www.google.com/search?q="+searchentry+"&btnG=Search+Books&tbm=bks&tbo=1&qscrl=1"

<a href=webaddress>

or something similar
