This is a novice question. Please bear with me as I learn.
I am trying to create a web page with HTML containing text boxes for different search engines, that goes to different searches depending on what box the user types into. For example, I use syntax like this successfully for a DuckDuckGo search:
<FORM action="https://duckduckgo.com/?q=" method=get name=f>
<input type=text value="" name=q >
<input type=image src="duckduckgo.png" height=32 border=0 align=absmiddle value="DuckDuckGo Search">
</FORM>
When I type banana and hit enter, it takes me to a page with a URL:
I'm not sure why it appends &x=0&y=0&ia=web at the end of the URL but that doesn't interfere with the function at duckduckgo. Is there an easy way to get rid of it?
More importantly, I would like to also create a similar search that takes me to a page with a URL:
https://othersearchengine.com/{user text}
How can I get rid of the ?q= that comes with this code?
Thank you for your help.
