HTML form action is prepending value instead of appending value

I have the following form. I would like to have the url be: http://myapp/library/#/iframe?title=Search&url=http:%2F%2Fencore.scranton.edu%2Fiii%2Fencore%2Fsearch%2F?lang=eng&target=Einstein

<form action="#/iframe?title=Search&url=http://encore.scranton.edu/iii/encore/search/" id="form" method="get" name="form" >
  <input name="target" type="search" value="" placeholder="Search" class="search-input">
</form>

But instead its prepending: http://myapp/library/?target=Einstein#/iframe?title=Search&url=http:%2F%2Fencore.scranton.edu%2Fiii%2Fencore%2Fsearch%2F?lang=eng

Angular code:

iframe/templates/index.html

<div ui-view class="container">
....
        <div class="animated fadeIn iframe">
            <iframe src="{{ url }}" frameborder="0"></iframe>
        </div>
</div>

iframe/controller.js

        //
        //  Routes
        //
      .state('iframe', {
        url         : '/iframe?title&url',
        templateUrl : 'modules/Iframe/templates/index.html',
        controller  : 'IframeController'
      })
    }]);

Without seeing the JS, I might be dancing in the dark, but did you try something like this?

Assuming no frameworks

var myform = document.getElementById("form");
var action = myform.getAttribute("action"); 
//reset the entire attribute
myform.setAttribute(action+"value_i_want_appended");

Using jQuery:

var currentURL = $("#form").prop('action');
var newAction = 'http://myapp/library/' + currentURL + '&target=Einstein';
$("#form").prop('action', newAction);

What about this?

<form action="http://encore.scranton.edu/iii/encore/search/?title=Search" id="form" method="get" name="form" >
    <input name="target" type="search" value="" placeholder="Search" class="search-input" />
    <input name="title" type="hidden" value="Search" />
</form>
