Question

I have a search form

<form id="search" method="GET">
    <input type="text" name="q" id="q" />
    <input type="submit" value="search" name="submit" id="submit" />
</form>

and when I submit it it adds ?q=&submit=submit to the URL is there a way that I can keep it from appending submit=submit but still pass the q=?

Answer 1

If you remove the name attribute from your <input type="submit" /> then that should get rid of submit=submit from the querystring (a quick test in Firefox / Firebug confirmed this). For example:

<input type="submit" value="search" />
