Custom Add To Cart Button

[daster]

hello all. I am having trouble trying to figure out an issue in ZC. Here's the background:

I would like to open a shop using zencart, however I myself will not be selling/shipping the products or will I be doing drop shipping. Instead, I am trying to setup a shop that will display items that I would like to sell through affiliate sales. Thus I do not need a button to add to cart.

What I would like to do is have that button open the product url in a new window. I know there is a function built in when setting up products that allows you to input the Products URL at the bottom of the page, for example: "For more information, please visit this product's webpage." I would like the "Add to Cart" Button to go to that product URL.

How would I go about doing this? I am guessing that i would have to find that variable for the and change the coding for the "Add to Cart" button instead to go to that URL. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You could put the shop in Showcase mode (no sales in the cart), and redefine the "For more information, please visit this product's webpage." text to be an appropriate button image or text.

that sounds like a good solution, where can i find the code to edit the text so I can convert it into a button image?
