    Creating Direct Search Field

    Looking to create a direct search link on our website. Whereas, if someone types a specific word ie "Dog" it would not return a search list, but rather would link to a specific .html page that corresponds with that search term.

    We are creating client pages for our clients and I would like it if the client could type in their "name" and be directed to "their" page.

    Is there a simple way to do this in HTML? Is there a Javascript? Do I have to resort to PHP?

    I'm a newbie and am not much of a programmer. The easier the better for me.

    Thanks so much and I look forward to hearing from anyone who could lend some advice.

    Thanks!

    How are the pages stored? Either way, your going to need the index of pages to be referenced. When a word is searched, it will be based on your criteria, so the first one returned wins the game. Your going to need a server-side language i'm afraid.
