How can make a program so as to get Search Results in another Window

I am udemy learner of javascript and In one the recent classes I learnt how to format url string the using javacscript.
Now I want to make a program in which user enters the string (say - harry potter) in form text input field and then on clicking button it redirects to second page and display that string search in BING search engine.
I tried to write some code but I failed. Can anybody help me ??
Following are the files I made
pastebin.com/syCzrqEe
pastebin.com/AgvCgCif

<form>
<input type="text" id="myinput">
<input type="submit">
</form>
<script>
document.forms[0].onsubmit = function() {
var query = document.getElementById('myinput').value;
window.open('http://www.bing.com/search?q=' + encodeURIComponent(query));
return false;
}
</script>

Using an input to search a local webpage in HTML

I'm stuck on this problem for now a couple of days and I have no idea what to do. I want to navigate directly to another page from my own website only by writing the page name(without the ".html" or ".php" in the input.
Example: you write "index" in the textbox and once you click on the submit button it sends you to "http://www.website.com/index.html". Instead of doing that, it sends me to "http://www.website.com/?2016=index&.=html"
I got it totally wrong because it sends the input names and some symbols around them.
This is my HTML code:
<form id="newsearch" method="get" action="http://www.website.com/">
<p>Enter your confirmation number:</p>
<input type="text" id="searchvalue" class="textbox1" name="2016" size="50" maxlength="120"><input type="submit" class="button1" value=">">
<input type="hidden" id="hiddenvalue1" name="." value="html">
</form>

Your current code simply submits a form, so it is quite correctly adding the entered value as part of the query string ?2016=index&.=html".
To navigate to the location, add a submit handler to the form that cancels the default form navigation and instead sets window.location to the relevant value, perhaps something like this:
document.getElementById("newsearch").addEventListener("submit", function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var searchText = document.getElementById("searchvalue").value;
var extension = document.getElementById("hiddenvalue1").value;
window.location = this.action + searchText + "." + extension;
// or if you don't want to use the form's action attribute to specify
// the domain you could hardcode it in the function:
// window.location = "http://www.website.com/" + searchText + "." + extension;
});
(Update: the above code would need to be in a script element that is after the form element, and/or in a DOMContentLoaded or window.onload handler.)

How to pass form input and music from one page to another using JavaScript?

So I've been stuck on this for a while now. I have the first page which includes this form:
<form id="user" name="user" method="GET" action="the-tell-tale-heart.html">
Name: <input type="text" name="name">
<br/>
<input type="radio" name="soundtrack" id="st1" value="oldMansion">Soundtrack 1
<br/>
<input type="radio" name="soundtrack" id="st2" value="champion">Soundtrack 2
<br/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
I want the user to have entered the name and chosen a soundtrack. The submit button would redirect them to a second page (the-tell-tale-heart.html) where their name would appear at the top saying "Hello, " and the soundtrack they chose would play.
I've been told to use parse URL to get this info on the second page. I only want to use javascript, no php or perl. This is what I have so far:
<script>
var name="";
var url=document.URL;
function findName(){
var re=/(name)\=(.*)?&/;
name=url.match(re);
name=name.substring(5);
alert(name);
}
findName();
var oldMansion = new Audio('music/stories-of-the-old-mansion.mp3');
var champion = new Audio('music/champion.mp3');
// play one or the other depending on which the user chooses IF STATEMENTS :D
if {
oldMansion.play();
}
else {
champion.play();
}
</script>
I'm not sure what the conditions for the music would be.
EDIT:
So the findName() function actually gets this part of the URL:
?name=izzy&soundtrack=champion
and cuts it down to this on the second page:
izzy&,name,izzy
I would just like to get "izzy" and put that on the top of the page.

Try this:
// ... your code
if(url.indexOf('soundtrack=oldMansion') != -1) oldMansion.play();
else champion.play();

If you're using javascript, you really should just initiate the music on the page you're already on. There's no point in submitting a form to another page - that's the whole point of javascript - making a more user-friendly, interactive design without breaking up the experience with new page loads.
Also, look into jQuery.

Python Click Different Buttons

Is there a way or method to click one of two different buttons in Python? The relevant HTML code for the two buttons is:
<input type="text" id="target" name="target" size="80" value="https://gj3s.inklingmarkets.com/user/good_judgment_authentication?u="style=\'display:none;\'>\n
<input type="button" id="training" name="training" style="width:200px;" value="Continue to Training" onclick="window.open(\'tr_redir.php\');" />
<input type="button" id="continue" name="continue" style="width:200px;" value="Continue to Forecasting Site" onclick="pm_go();" />
The button I need to click when I access manually the website is the second (last row) with id="continue" and onclick="pm_go();"
I tried with requests post and get methods without success.
import requests
s = requests.Session()
r = s.post(Log_URL, data={"target":'https://gj3s.inklingmarkets.com/memberships/2010/profile'})
The script pm_go provides the target webpage
function pm_go(){
var target_path = document.getElementById('target').value;
if( target_path == '' ){
alert("A target path is not yet defined for this Condition.");
} else {
document.location = "pm_redir.php?target=" + target_path;
}

Thanks to the suggestions and prodding by #Md-Mohsin I recorded the session with Chrome FN12 the Network tab, preserve the log. What I discovered was that after sign in authorization, I was supposed to enter a URL with a target.
The URL parameter I was using for the requests.Session().get was
https://gj3s.inklingmarkets.com/ + something else
instead the URL above is supposed to be passed as a target parameter in a different, longer URL
https://www.goodjudgmentproject.com/forecasting/pm_redir.php?target=https://gj3s.inklingmarkets.com/user/good_judgment_authentication?u=
The recorded log of the showed all the addresses, in the POST and in the GET action to log in. I found the one I pasted above. I guess that's what the JavaScript was doing. So now my code to access the website in two steps is
user= 'my_e-mail_address#gmail.com'; pw = 'my_password'
Log_URL= 'https://www.goodjudgmentproject.com/forecasting/login.php'
Welcome_URL= 'https://www.goodjudgmentproject.com/forecasting/pm_redir.php?target=https://gj3s.inklingmarkets.com/user/good_judgment_authentication?u='
s = requests.Session()
r = s.post(Log_URL, data={"email":user, "password":pw})
r = s.get(Welcome_URL)

Javascript Form Open URL in new tab

I have a piece of code that I have been getting help on and I have come across something that I find inconvenient. When I click the "Go" button it browses away from the current tab. I want to have the resulting URL from the form to open in a new tab. in addition I cannot hit the enter key because it will just load the whole form up in a new window. How do I correct the "enter" key usage problem and get my form to open the URL in a new tab. The forms function is to open a new URL that contains information I am searching for. Here is my code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function setSearchTermSN(n){
var SN_VALUE = encodeURIComponent(document.getElementById("sn").value);
location.href = "http://URL to site.com/perl/search?searchtype=sn&type=2&uid=" + SN_VALUE + "&visualtype=html%2Fen&tabset=person";
}
</script>
<form target="_blank">
Last Name: <input id="sn" type="text" value="" />
<input type="button" value="Go" onclick="setSearchTermSN()" />
</form>
the idea is to enter a last name such as Jones into the input box. Click go and the form would substitute " + SN_VALUE + " with Jones and the load the URL like this:
http://URL to site.com/perl/search?searchtype=sn&type=2&uid=Jones&visualtype=html%2Fen&tabset=person
the form currently does the substitution but it browses away from the search box which defeats the purpose of having it. I have tried the <form target="_blank"> but it still opens the URL in the same page.
credit for the above code goes to https://stackoverflow.com/users/904428/david

window.location only deals with the current document. You need to use window.open
Missed the other part about the enter key. You need a onkeyup event listener and check the event keycode for the return key and then run the same function as the click.

function setSearchTermSN(n){
var SN_VALUE = encodeURIComponent(document.getElementById("sn").value);
var newwindow = window.open("http://URL to site.com/perl/search?searchtype=sn&type=2&uid=" + SN_VALUE + "&visualtype=html%2Fen&tabset=person",'name');
return false;
}
