How to add external links?

A quick question for anyone :) My website not only has a shopping cart, but several informational pages (articles, information, etc). i would like to link these pages to the shopping cart itself, so they can open up a new window, view the info pages and still have access to the shopping cart. How would i go about doing this?

I am reasonably intelligent, but if you could walk me through it as if I knew nothing at all, i would appreciate it :shocking:

Thanks so much! You all have been such a wonderful help already :) I LOVE zen cart!!!

Re: How to add external links?

If these are informational pages that you have control over, you can make them internal links via ezpages. This will create these pages with the information right in Zen Cart.. Your post seems to indicate that these are your informational pages.

I do not like this but if you must and especially if the link is off your site something like this can be used:

<script type="text/javascript"> function opennastypopup() { window.open("some_file.html", "", "toolbar=no,height=100,width=200"); return false; } </script> ...

enter the above script, then the code below where you want it to appear...

<a href="your_link address/some_file.html" onclick="return opennastypopup()" onkeypress="return opennastypopup()">Some_description</a>
