What's The Easiest Way To Create A Direct Link In The Sidebox?

[DK_Scully]

Okay, I tried the same trick with another site, but it didn't work. Can anyone please help me figure out what I did wrong?

I inserted this block of code (identical to the first except the cPaths and urls are changed):

if ($box_categories_array[$i]['path'] == 'cPath=16') { 
    $content .= '<div class="betterCategories"><a class="' . $new_style . '" href="http://www.book-oasis.com\">'; 
} elseif ($box_categories_array[$i]['path'] == 'cPath=17') { 
    $content .= '<div class="betterCategories"><a class="' . $new_style . '" href="http://www.carnal-pleasures.com\zencart\">'; 

just above:

} else { 
$content .= '<div class="betterCategories"><a class="' . $new_style . '" href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT, $box_categories_array[$i]['path']) . '">';
if ($box_categories_array[$i]['current']) {
if ($box_categories_array[$i]['has_sub_cat']) {
$content .= '<span class="category-subs-parent">';
$content .= cat_with_pointer($box_categories_array[$i]['name'], 'down', $spacer);
$content .= '</span>';
} else {
$content .= '<span class="category-subs-selected">';
$content .= cat_with_pointer($box_categories_array[$i]['name'], 'nosub', $spacer);
$content .= '</span>';
}
} else {
if ($box_categories_array[$i]['has_sub_cat']) { 
$content .= cat_with_pointer($box_categories_array[$i]['name'], 'right', $spacer); }
else { 
$content .= cat_with_pointer($box_categories_array[$i]['name'], 'nosub', $spacer); }
} 

Am I putting it in the wrong place?

Many thanks, in advance, for your assistance!!
