Add Links to 'More Information' Sidebox

[larryweiss]

My store uses v1.3.9h which is current as of today.
There are very extensive css changes and a few code changes. All revised files are in override directories.
I am trying to add custom php pages to the "more information" sidebox.


Here is what has worked:

Added the following line to includes/modules/sideboxes/override/more_information.php

$more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(advanced_search) . '">' . 'advanced search' . '</a>';

OK. Worked perfectly. The link showed up and the expected page loaded. A page with a header, sideboxes and footer with an advanced search "panel" in the main area. Problem is, that 'advanced search' is not the page I want. I just used it as a test of concept.



Here is whats not working:

Opened: includes/english/advanced_search.php
Saved it as: includes/english/advanced_searchxx.php
So now There is a duplicate page with a slightly different name in the same directory.

Then added the following two lines to includes/modules/sideboxes/override/more_information.php

$more_information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(advanced_searchxx) . '">' . 'advanced searchxx 1' . '</a>';

$more_information[] = '<a href="http://wwwmysite.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_searchxx">' . 'advanced searchxx' . '</a>';

The links showed up just fine. In both cases hovering over them showed what I think would be the correct address (in status bar):

h t t p : / / w w w. mysite . com/index.php?main_page=advanced_searchxx (spaces intentional)

But what loaded was the usual page but instead of the expected content there was a:
Page Not Found Custom 404 Error Page.........
By the usual page I mean the correct header, sideboxes, footer, yet the main box content was the 404.

SO:

What's happening is that the cart cannot see the new page that I created.
Its seeing the old page just fine. Maybe it's an issue of the "new" page not being "registered" somewhere, but I have no clue about that.

The site is s o f a b e d - m a t t r e s s dot com
The more information sidebox is called "Mattress Information"

If I could get this to work, then it would be easy to make additional pages which would be linked to via the "more information" sidebox.

Please help.

Have you seen this (as a guide if nothing else)?:

Seen it, and studied it. There is a lot more than I want, and if what I am looking for is in there, it's eluding me.
