Yes, you could customized infoWindow a lots of way you want. In your case you could write a HTML Markup for a button and attach a onclick handler to open a new web page, and then set your infoWindow content to that html markup. You can read this to get more info: http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/javascript/arcgis/help/jshelp/intro_formatinfowindow.htm

Hi Zhu,

Thanks for the email. I was trying to implment the page you sent.

I am updating code spread over 4 files.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The code in my code is:

            //Set the infoTemplate.
            infoTemplate = new esri.InfoTemplate();
            infoTemplate.title = "${STREET_NAME}";
            infoTemplate.content = "<b>Address: </b>${ADDRESS}<br /><b>PostCode: </b>${POSTCODE}"
            graphic.setInfoTemplate(infoTemplate);
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I tried to put a button and URL into this, no luck. It did not work

Should something like this:

infoTemplate.content="<input type='button' value='open newpage' onclick='window.open(...)'/>"

Hi Zhu,

I added the code you suggested, still getting an error.
I am trying to get a button at the top of the infoWindow.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>
map.infoWindow.setTitle("Identify Results");

map.infoWindow.setText(infoTemplate.content=="<input type='button' value='open newpage' onclick='window.open(http://www.google.co.uk)'/>" );

map.infoWindow.setContent(tc.domNode);
map.infoWindow.resize(360, 200);

I don't think infoWindow has a setText method. I know it has setContent method.

Hi Zhu,

I changed the code, still getting the same error "addIdentifyResultsToMap error, details: [object error]"

                map.infoWindow.setTitle("Identify Results");
map.infoWindow.setContent(infoTemplate.content=="<input type='button' value='open newpage' onclick='window.open(http://www.google.co.uk)'/>");
                map.infoWindow.setContent(tc.domNode);
                map.infoWindow.resize(360, 200);

I have commented out the external infoWindow.js.
I have added in the code from the ESRI example (below).

I still get the external infoWindow not the default ESRI infoWindow??

I have 3 files. Test.html; test.js and infoWindow.js.
If I comment out the infoWindow.js, I get an error.

I added the following code in test.js and infoWindow.js, I still do not get a button added

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
test.js
map.infoWindow.setTitle("Identify Results");

/// ADDED
map.infoWindow.setContent( tc.domNode =="<input type='button' value='open newpage' onclick='window.open(http://www.google.co.uk)'/>");
/// ADDED

map.infoWindow.setContent(tc.domNode);
map.infoWindow.resize(360, 200);
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
infoWindow.js
dojo.addClass(this.domNode, "myInfoWindow");
    /// ADDED
    this._openButton = dojo.create("div", { "class": "openButton", title:"Open" }, this.domNode);
   /// ADDED

    this._closeButton = dojo.create("div", { "class": "close", title: "Close" }, this.domNode);
    this._title = dojo.create("div", { "class": "title" }, this.domNode);
    this._content = dojo.create("div", { "class": "content" }, this.domNode);
