I'm trying to place this code in two different places on an html page and have it submit properly regardless of which box the user types the phrase:
<form id="search_form" action="http://example.com/search/results/" method="get">
<label for="search"></label>
<input autocomplete="off" id="search" name="q" value="" class="input-text" maxlength="128" type="text">
<button type="submit" title="Search">
<span><span>Search</span></span>
</button>
</form>
The problem:
If there are two forms then the first form submits this way:
/search/results/?q=test&q=
Which fails.
The second form submits this way:
/search/results/?q=&q=test
And works but is incorrect.
How can I rewrite the forms to make each one unique so that the search button next to each input makes either form submit like this:
/search/results/?q=test
Each form needs a unique id.
<form id="search_form1" action="http://example.com/search/results/" method="get">
<label for="search"></label>
<input autocomplete="off" id="search" name="q" value="" class="input-text" maxlength="128" type="text">
<button type="submit" title="Search">
<span><span>Search</span></span>
</button>
</form>
<form id="search_form2" action="http://example.com/search/results/" method="get">
<label for="search"></label>
<input autocomplete="off" id="search" name="q" value="" class="input-text" maxlength="128" type="text">
<button type="submit" title="Search">
<span><span>Search</span></span>
</button>
</form>
