help linking button to outside url


Guest

Recommended Posts

I created a new page using the KB directions and shipping.php copies.

all is working fine except....

 

I have a button that I need to link to a url outside of osC (outside of my site)

 

this is the current code for the button link.

this code links the button back to my index page.

<td align="right"><?php echo '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '">' . tep_image_button('button_continue.gif', IMAGE_BUTTON_CONTINUE) . '</a>'; ?></td>

 

I need to be able to change the link to www.domain.com

 

I have looked in the KB but am confused. as per the KB I can get the link in a hyper link style (underlined text), but I cannot figure out how to link the button image to anything other than another page within my site.

 

I have tried to replace . tep_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) .

with the destination url but that only breaks the page.

 

I think I am on the right track but am missing something and I don't know what.

 

help please

 

thank you

To link to a page or site outside the osC folder you have to use plain HTML.

If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.

thank you Jim

 

I knew I was on the right track, I had similar once but not the complete code as you posted. I think I had removed the <?php echo and tried to go just with html <a href

 

button now linked to the proper url.
