add button to launch html page

How would i go about adding a button to the information menu, so that when you click it it loads an html page in a new window??

I've installed tiltviewer on my clients site and we want a link to the tiltviewer gallery in the information menu, however we just want the link to load the tiltviewer html page, and not to just link to another php page on the site.

Just as a starter for this, I'm assuming that I just need to add an extra page and menu item as per the about_us scenario, but change the target of the navigation button to point towards the html file???.... Am I correct??
Please help,

Cheers, Andy

Yep. That should do it.

Ok... If you check the site you'll see that I've created a new page and nav button for gallery.

Now I just need to know what code to alter and where to make the nav button open https://www.pinknblue.biz/tiltviewer/index.html

Also I want it to open in a new window if possible.

Cheers,

can't figure out where to put the code.. or even what to put...

Any takers please?

bett, when you created your nav button, where did it get this URL?: **http://pinknblue.biz/index.php?main_page=gallery****, **as that's where it's pointing to (you had to point it that dirrection, somewhere. Just change that address to your html page, or even better.....put your gallery on the page that the nav button is already pointing to.

I'm not sure whether the tiltgallery will display properly embedded into a php page, due to the size required for the tiltgallery to work. I think it would be too small.

I'll give it a go though, and see what it looks like. I still prefer the idea of the galley loading in a seperate window with the black background.

i embedded the gallery into the define_gallery.php page and it was way too small. I still think it's better to click the nav button and the gallery page loads in a seperate window full screen.

The url of the gallery page is https://www.pinknblue.biz/tiltviewer/index.html

you'll see it looks much better and at a nice resolution.

Where do I change that code?

Sorted after ploughing round the forum for about an hour.

changed the code in information.php.

if (DEFINE_GALLERY_STATUS <= 1) {

    $information[] = '<a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_GALLERY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_GALLERY . '</a>';

  }

to

if (DEFINE_ABOUT_US_STATUS <= 1) {

    $information[] = '<a href=http://www.pinknblue.biz/tiltviewer.index.html target="_blank">' . BOX_INFORMATION_ABOUT_US . '</a>';

  }
