I would like to change the URL that appears once a form has been submitted although the code below does not appear to do what I would like it to do. How do I change the URL in the address bar?
CODE
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XMHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"

<script type="text/javascript">
var testurl = window.location.href;
if(testurl == "file:///C:/Users/user/Desktop/sample_form.html?q=test&submit=submit") {
testurl = testurl.replace(/q=[^&]+&[a-z]+\=[a-z]+/,'test');
alert(testurl);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="sampleform" id="sampleform" method="get" action="sample_form.html">
<input type="text" name="q" value="" id="q" />
