#include <WindowsConstants.au3>



GUICreate("Please Input Question", 260, 50, 193, 125, -1, BitOR($WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW,$WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE))
$i = GUICtrlCreateInput("Enter Question Here", 16, 8, 185, 21)
$b = GUICtrlCreateButton("OK", 216, 16, 33, 25, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

$s_URL = "http://nick761.mango12.com/oodles/api.php?clue=" & $i

while 1

If GUIGetMsg() = $b Then
    $WinHttpReq = ObjCreate("WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1")
    $WinHttpReq.Open("GET", $s_URL ,false)
    $WinHttpReq.Send()
    $c = $WinHttpReq.ResponseText
    MsgBox(1,"Answer", $c)
endif
wend

i want it to add the question at the end of the line for example the user types in "what is my name" it would send

http://nick761.mango12.com/oodles/api.php?clue=what is my name

but it does not all it it sends is
