Hey you smart people-

My site, www.moviesbooksfood.com is new as am I, to web-design. I want to add a button to my page that will automatically open a new page on my site. I think I have the button part figured out (well almost) with using an in the Blog template. But how do I link that button to a new page? Also do I need to update the code on my server, or through my WordPress template?

Thanks in advance.

You could style a regular link as a button. One idea for a pretty, scalable button with rounded corners can be seen at David's Kitchen.

This particular solution requires you to add a class to a regular link, and some CSS to your style sheet. Hopefully not a difficult task for you.

Cordially, David
