I want to have a hidden keyword attached to a search form, so when someone types in their words the hidden keyword will get attached when bringing the search results. Does anyone know how to apply this to the coding? Thanks.

    Your search form posts to a search result page like search.php or whatever. You could have it post to itself to... whatever...


    $mynewterm = $_POST['yoursearchfieldname'] . "Your other word to append";

    Then do whatever you want with the variable mynewterm

      Okay... It depends on the form that you want to send.

      Can you modify the form with Javascript? Does it get sent to a page on your local webserver? I need a bit more input on this.

    to add a hidden field to a form

    add to your form
    <input type="hidden" name="keyword" value=" keyword or php to add the keyword here">

    then on the next page to retrieve it
    $keyword=$_POST[keyword];


    now $keyword = whatever the value of keyword was on the previous form page.
