Description
<?php
function webmail_plus_solr_searchbox_submit($form, &$form_state) {
$keyword = $form_state['values']['webmail_plus_solr_seach_keyword'];
_webmail_plus_solr_add_history($keyword);
drupal_goto('webmail_plus/solr_search/'.$keyword);
}
?>To determine where the user should be sent after the form is processed, the _submit function can place a path or URL in $form_state['redirect'] which will be the target of a drupal_goto; every form is redirected after a submit. If you store nothing in $form_state['redirect'], the form will simply be redirected to itself after a submit. It is polite to use drupal_set_message() to explain to the user that the submission was successful.
