How to redirect to a URL in JavaScript after submitting a certain keyword in a form?

Question

I am creating a website and I am creating a form in it. In this form, I wanted to make it redirect to a URL (www.google.pt, for example) only if a keyword is written in the form when submitted (for example, "google"). Can anyone help me please? Here is the HTML code I've written to create the form:

<form action="/action_page.php" method="post">
  <input type="text">
  <br><br>
  <button type="submit">SUBMETER</button>
</form>

No, my question requires a keyword to redirect to another webpage. — Mike Robertson, Jul 19 '17 at 18:55
So, on this site we expect people to actually try and solve their issue before posting a question. See [ask], especially the part "Search, and research". You lucked out and got Cory to answer your question for free. — Heretic Monkey, Jul 19 '17 at 18:58
Yea, I just like solving problems. Or maybe I like the abuse... — Cory Madden, Jul 19 '17 at 19:01

$(form).submit(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    if($(input).val().indexOf('yourWord') !== -1){
        window.location = 'http://www.google.pt';
    }
});

It's going to require some editing. This is just a template to do what you're asking. – Cory Madden Jul 19 '17 at 19:00
