There are several ways. A simple way would be to add a module with this code. Save this code as index.php in the folder of whatever you name your module. Then ftp it to your modules folder and activate it through your Admin Control Panel.

Note: I have changed the Topic/Subject to better describe this Wink

Code:


<?php
if (!defined('MODULE_FILE'))
{
   die('You can\'t access this file directly...');
}
header('Location: http://www.website.com/gallery');
die();
?>

You will need to modify the way the link is presented to the user.

If you don't want to get into adding php logic to your block, you could use JavaScript to target to address of your link.

Code:
$NewWindow = '<script type="text/javascript">

$("a[href$=\'mysite.com/mygallery.html\']").attr("target", "_blank");
</script>';
addJSToBody($NewWindow, 'inline');


This could be added to any block, just replace mysite.com/mygallery.html with how your link ENDS. Include enough of the address to ensure it will be unique, so the attribute will not be appended to other links. You could also use:
link begins with this string
a[href^=\'http://www.ravenphpscripts.com\']
link contains this string somewhere within the URL
a[href*=\'ravenphpscripts\']

** this assumes you are running at least ravennuke 2.4+

I am using standard 8.2 nuke,

My best bet is to use JScript though, can you explain where to put what text and if I need to make a whole new Java Script to make this work?

I don't have any familiarity with standard nuke (other than recommending people not use it Surprised )

While we are always glad to help, the fact they have no support and you have to ask questions here should tell you something about php-nuke.. Not to mention the other issues Smile

OK, back to it, assuming your block uses $content something like this at the end of your block should work.

Code:
$content .= '<script type="text/javascript">

$("a[href$=\'mysite.com/mygallery.html\']").attr("target", "_blank");
</script>';


Although this requires jquery which I don't know if 8.2 uses.. Rolling Eyes If it does not you are stuck coming up with a pure JavaScript solution or including jquery yourself. At that point it is probably less work to edit the block file and add logic to add the attribute via php. If you post back with your blockfile code we can probably come up with something.

You are right about the lack of support at phpnuke, however, if I upgrade to Raven Nuke I will most probably lose all I have now right?


The block i use now:

Code:


<?php

if (!eregi("modules.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}

$index = 0;   // 0 : do not show right blocks - 1:show right blocks
require_once("mainfile.php");
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));

include("header.php");


header('location:http://www.xdppxclan.co.uk/');

?>

the code i use now (the edit does not do anything it seems)

Code:


<?php

if (!eregi("modules.php", $PHP_SELF)) {
die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}

$index = 0;   // 0 : do not show right blocks - 1:show right blocks
require_once("mainfile.php");
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));

include("header.php");


header('location:http://www.xdppxclan.co.uk/');

rjms,

There are SOOO many holes in regular php-nuke that you are going to lose everything if you don't change becasue you will get hacked.

I have not looked at the database for 8.2 but I there are compare files in the RN installer to compare database tables. Most likely you would not lose everything. It might take some work to get it up and running but it can be done.

The support staff here is very good.

RN is Safe, Secure and has an active support staff. If you are going to stay with Nuke in general...you should bite the bullet and do the change over and be done with it.

Just my .02

Module

Code:
<?php


if (!defined('MODULE_FILE')) {
   die ("You can't access this file directly...");
}
require_once("mainfile.php");
$module_name = basename(dirname(__FILE__));
get_lang($module_name);
include("header.php");
define('INDEX_FILE', true);
OpenTable();
echo"$NewWindow = '<script type=\"text/javascript\">"
  . "(\"a[href$=\\'mysite.com/mygallery.html\\']\").attr(\"target\", \"_blank\");"
  . "/script>';"
  . "ddJSToBody($NewWindow, 'inline');";
CloseTable();
include("footer.php");

?>


block

Code:
<?php


if ( !defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
    Header("Location: ../index.php");
    die();
}
$content .= '<script type="text/javascript">
$("a[href$=\'mysite.com/mygallery.html\']").attr("target", "_blank");
</script>';
?>

thanks guys Razz

Is there a manual too to upgrade standard nuke (8.2) to Raven Nuke somewhere?

Got the block working with JQuery btw Smile

I would start with: [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

then
UtilityFiles/table_compare/readme.txt

which is included in the distro. Get your tables to match and you should be good to go Smile

If you have questions just post back. Glad you got the jquery solution working Wink

so the link is opening in a new window, but is not redirecting?

If so make sure your module file looks like Raven's example, I noticed your posted example was different.

If the new window is not opening refer to my first example since you are running RavenNuke now Smile

Depending on which block and/or menu you are adding the link to, there are ways to avoid JavaScript usage, if desired.

there is some missing code in that example. Use the code raven posted in the second post in this thread.

If you still need to add the javascript to add the target blank attribute, see my first post in this thread. Add that to the block in question, on a new line, before the closing ?>

While making a module serve as a link should work, you might want to consider other approaches as well. Like for instance, if you have an opening message at the top of your web page just put the link in there using the links editor and some prominent fonts and positioning. Or even create a block that has nothing in it but the link to your Gallery and position that center top using the blocks editor. Or add a sample picture to such a block to illustrate what you are pointing them to.

Creating a pseudo-module seems like a long way around the block to me.

If I use that code it opens in the same window, and scrambles my home.
