How to - fill in 3 blanks on a page then go to another page ??

Will

We want to setup a single web page with 3 blank fields... like...

... Category
.... Name
.... Code

Based on what the user inputs into those 3 fields... we open a specific web
page.

The Category could be a folder...

The Name and Code would be added together (concatanated) to be the name of a
specefic file... like... NameCode.htm. NameCode.htm could be in the category
folder...

Regardless... I want the 3 fields to define and link the user to a specefic
page.

How can I do this without server side scripting... using front page?

What other ways may I consider?

Thanks for any help.

That's a good idea... but we have added a 4th field so now we have...

Field 1 = Group which will be the name of a particular folder
Field 2 = Category will be a folder within the folder selected above
Field 3 = gets concatanated (added) to Code below for the file name like
NameCode.htm
Field 4 = Code

How about this approach...

Field 1 = Drop Down
Field 2 = Drop Down
Field 3 = blank for typing
Field 4 = bland for typing

I really appriceate the help. Thanks!
