Help button in WAD 7.X

Question

Hi all, i'm creating standard Web templates in 7.X version of WAD and i'm unable to insert a button that call a web adress to go to a help page.
In 3.5 Version it was very easy, doing it by code... The only thing I have seen in the new version is to insert an hyperlink (Toolbar --> Insert --> Hyperlink) but this only create a text chain that appears in the layout and guides you to a web adress but the web adress is displayed in the same window and after that you are unable to go back to your report (furthermore the appearance of this hyperlink is poor).
So, do anyone know hoy to create a button that guides you to a web adress ??
Maybe linking a java script with a button link? But i have no idea about what code I need to obtain this...
Infinite thanks.

Answer 1

Hi,
we have done something like this to open a documentation for the WebReport (the documentation has the same name as the template).
Just insert a ButtonGroup-Item and a ScriptItem.
function executeDocumentation( currentState, defaultCommandSequence ){
var templName = sapbi_page.m_mainTemplateName;
var baseDir = "http://....directory of documents.../";
var docuFile = baseDir + templName + ".htm";
window.open (docuFile);
Link the function ExecuteDocumentation to your Button.
