<input type="button" id="button1" value="Click here to connect" onclick="window.location = 'http://google.com'" />
And here's just a simple form:
<form method="GET" action="http://google.com">
<input type="submit" id="button1" value="Click here to connect" />
</form>
Thanks for your reply.
Your solution does NOT work...
This is my code:

As you can see, I used your suggested code:
[color=blue]<input type=\"button\" id=\"button1\"
value=\"Return to Main Menu\" onclick=\"window.location='http://localhost/TestSams19.378 - Creating a Menu.php' \" />[/color]
<! I added this button, so that it returns us to the main Menu.>
But the button does NOT do anything!!!
I can't figure out what is wrong....
Any ideas?
Thanks
