    OK. If I enter the words, Chickens, then I will go to a new page called Chickens?

    Nearly :-)

    Enter 123 = MyPageXYZ
    Enter 223 = Page223
    Enter 339 = NewInfo339

    Got it. Just link the text to the page.

    Visitor clicks 123. Link takes visitor to MyPageXYZ.

    You can also have a sub-menu for a Navigation Bar. The sub-menu can have a list of all the pages in that category.

    I think BerndR want a single cell that visitors type in, not a drop down box. As in 'go to page:'

    Maybe a SEARCH box? https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...460#post512460

    I Need a TextBox where someone type in a number...
    Not a DropDown List or something else...
    Only a TextBox as Input Field and then go forward with the Number to a Fix Link...
    See the first note....

    I'm pretty sure you're going to be needing a database to be able to store and reference the data, the input field would then be linked to the database. My mind keeps flicking to CRM software, but that's wandering off into different territory entirely.

    Looking at what James has said brings up the question of how many references are there likely to be? I ran down the track of hundreds because the example you gave had 3 figure digits, but of course, that may not be the case.

    BerndR, I may have missed the essence of your request but I think you are asking for something like: JS - Jumping Pages.xar.

    I have not checked for any page that might not exist. If the input is not a number or outside the range of 100 to 999, the jump goes to the index page.

    I haven't tested but this is a PHP solution(you will need to add the .php extension to your page name) going by your last example paste this code in the head section(placeholder > html(head)) of your page.

    PHP Code:
    <php?
    if(isset(
    $_GET['page']) {
    $page $_GET['page'];

    if(
    $page == '123') {
    $page 'MyPageXYZ';
    }
    if(
    $page == '223') {
    $page 'Page' $page;
    }
    if(
    $page == '339') {
    $page 'NewInfo' $page;
    }

    header('Location: {$page}.htm');
    }
    ?> 
    Create a rectangle where you want the input to show and go to placeholder > html(body) and paste the following
    HTML Code:
    <form method="get">
    <input type='text' name='page'>
    </form>
    If PHP doesn't suit there is likely a JS option but I don't know it off hand, I'd have to look it up.
