I want to add a Link to it.. anyone help?

The file you want to edit is information.php in the catalog->includes->boxes folder.

[superman123]

yes i know its information.php..

 

i'm asking what code i need to put in.

 

THIS is what i have right now.

 

$info_box_contents = array();

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'center',

'text' => 'tep_href_link'MY WEBADDRESS');

 

But its not working.. i get a PHP error..

 

i need to know what code to put in the 'text' area.

normal Hyperlinking using HTML doesn't work.

Add this:

 

 '<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_NEW_FILE) . '">' . BOX_NEW_FILE . '</a><br>' .

 

Don't forget to add defines to filename.php and english.php.

 

HTH

 

*edit*

 

You define FILENAME_NEW_FILE in filenames.php and BOX_NEW_FILE in english.php.

[myriadgames]

You probably want something like this:

 

  $info_box_contents[] = array('text' => '<a href="http://www.whateveryouwant.com">' . BOX_INFORMATION_MY_WEBSITE . '</a>');

 

*edit*

 

Beat me to it, Noel.

i KIND of get what your saying.. but still confused

 

I'll just tell you what i want to do

 

i want that hyperlink to be a direct link to a File on my server. So that when my customers click on the link it will show the File Download screen.

[superman123]

Ok i got it to SOMEWHAT work..

 

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_CONDITIONS) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_RESELLERS . '</a><br>' .

 

I made the lettering say Resellers.. but i still need it to hyperlink to a file. Is there a code for that?

[superman123]

[egnegron]

it's the forum link that i need to open in a _blank window.

in the FILENAMES.PHP i have defined the link as:

 

define('FILENAME_FORUM', 'evilboard/index.php');

?>

 

what am i missing it currently opens but INSIDE the current page.

I need it to open in a NEW window out side os OSCOMMERCE

[nrlatsha]

'<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_FORUM) .'"target="_blank">' . BOX_INFORMATION_FORUM . 
'</a><br>');

[nrlatsha]
