Trying to add a new page - help please.

[NicholasP]

I am trying to add a link to the top right user box called "Resource Links."

I want to be able to click this link and have the contents show up like everything else does in the main window.

It is all basic html in the page. So far, this is what I have for the page itself(actual content omitted to save space on here).

Code: [Select]

<form method="post" action="{url_search}">
  <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1">
    <tr>
      <td class="head1">
        <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0">
          <!--DWLayoutTable-->
          <tr>
            <td width="1390" height="27" valign="top" class="head1">Resource Links</td>
          </tr>
          <tr>
            <td height="162" valign="top" class="row1">
<font size="3"><br>
INSERT TEXT HERE YADDA YADDA
</td>
            </tr>
        </table>
      </td>
    </tr>
  </table>
</form>

I had edited the lang/end/main file under the MISC Section to include:

Code: [Select]

$lang['resourcelinks'] = "Resource Links";

I had put the resourcelinks.html file under /templates/default/

I then edited the user_logininfo.html file to add:

Code: [Select]

&raquo; <a href="{url_resourcelinks}">{lang_resourcelinks}</a>


What am I doing wrong here? I am positive I am missing some crucial steps in this.

... you must also register your new tag "url_resourcelinks" ...
... in includes/page_header.php find ...

Code: [Select]

$site_template->register_vars(array(

... insert below the following ...

Code: [Select]

"url_resourcelinks" => $site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."templates/default/resourcelinks.html"),

Hmmm that helped a little... but it opened up the page alone and not in the main section of the gallery.

I really appreciate the help.
