This is probably the easiest thing, but its still a problem for me!  
I have a button I want to get to a website with.  
I know its just to put the getURL() code, but it isnt just to write:  
“getURL([http://www.example.com](http://www.example.com))” is it? It says something about getURL(url,window,method);. Whats the window and method?

Or simply, whats the code I need to write on the button I want to open “[http://www.home.no/oyvindr](http://www.home.no/oyvindr)” with? (I want to open it in a new window.)
