Tutorial: Add a new menu button/link

[Yngwiedis]

Please somebody can help me with this problem ?
I want to make a link to open in pop up window.
I have this code :

Code Select Expand

<a href="javascript:void(0)"
onclick="window.open('http://pub17.bravenet.com/guestmap/show.php?usernum=1419123856&lightmap=0&icons=0&&entrylist=0&zoom=0&welcome=1','bnetguestmap','toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=720,height=470,top=110,left=110')"></a>and i convert it to :

Code Select Expand

<a href=\"javascript:window.open('http://pub17.bravenet.com/guestmap/show.php?usernum=1419123856&lightmap=0&icons=0&&entrylist=0&zoom=0&welcome=1','bnetguestmap','toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=720,height=470,top=110,left=110')\" target=_blank></a>to make the link open in a pop up window.
But now when the pop up is open the index page of the forum is transform to blank page and write [object]
Can you help me with this please ?

P.S. If you want to see my forum the link is Here

you should make the script separate from the link itself.

Code Select Expand

<script>
function newWin()
{
window.open('URL of your page here','','height=400,width=600,toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,location=no,status=no');
}
</script>
and make the the link:

Code Select Expand

javascript:newWin()
I like that way cuz it cleans it up and it's easier to use.

When I cut in the code for YaBBSE 1.4.0 to add a Chat ICon, I get the following.

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in /usr/local/httpd/wwwyabbse/Sources/Subs.php on line 108

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: clicklog() in /usr/local/httpd/www/yabbse/index.php on line 65


I can't find that I did anything wrong on the cuts/pastes.

Folks I have tried to do this mod, tweaking it for the new code formatting of the new versinos, but all I get is the additional $menusep showing on the page but no link appears between them for the chatroom I am trying to add, anyone got any ideas.......this is the link to the site HERE.

Does anyone have any idea why this will not show?

the code looks fine! tho I did not try it.
If it does not work why not hard code the link. i.e search for:

Code Select Expand

   $yymenu = "<a href=\"$scripturl\">$img[home]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$helpfile\" target=\"_blank\">$img[help]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=search\">$img[search]</a>";and replace it with:

$yymenu = "<a href=\"$scripturl\">$img[home]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$helpfile\" target=\"_blank\">$img[help]</a>$menusep<a href=\"$cgi;action=search\">$img[search]</a><a href=\"www.mychat.com\">chat</a>";
