You don't need a form (with submit) to display a different web page. You just need a link ("a" element) where the "href" contains the URL you want to display:

  <a href="http://the_other_URL_goes.here">Click here</a>

If t hat's not what you are looking for, perhaps you can describe it with a bit more detail or provide an example of a web page that already does it.

As I understand it, the purpose of this forum is for students to assist each other in leaning development skills. But it sounds like you're just soliciting for a donation in the form of a completed coding project, which is not allowed according to the Terms of Service.

If I got that wrong, and you're really trying to learn how to do it yourself, please restate the question and provide the code you have developed for it already and I'm sure you can get some help with it.
