How to set textfield value in JSP action

I am designing a JSP page with form action.

<form action="" method="post">
  Username: <input type="textfield" name="username" /> 
  Country : <input type="textfield" name="country" /> 
  Url : <input type="textfield" name="Url" />

  <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

I want to set the user given URL value in form action when I click the Submit button and redirect to that URL. How can I achieve this?

This can work pretty well

<form action="" method="post" id="myForm">
    Username: <input type="text" name="username" />
    Country : <input type="text" name="country" />
    Url : <input id="url" type="text" name="Url" />

    <button onclick="doStuff();">Submit</button>
</form>
<script>
    function doStuff(){
        $('#myForm').attr('action', $('#url').val());
        $('#myForm').submit();
    }
</script>

Don't forget to include the JQuery api's in your code:

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
