//A helper function to add a button to one of the toolbars in the interface. An improved (I hope) version of addlilink. JesseW, the juggling janitor 05:33, 8 November 2005 (UTC)*/

function addLink(where, url, name, id, title, key, after){ //* where is the id of the toolbar where the button should be added; //  i.e. one of "p-cactions", "p-personal", "p-navigation", or "p-tb". //   //* url is the URL which will be called when the button is clicked. //  javascript: urls can be used to do more complex things. //   //* name is what will appear as the name of the button. //   //* id is the id of the button; it's best to define one. //  Use a prefix to make sure its unique. Optional. //   //* title is the tooltip title that gives a longer description //  of the button; if you define a accesskey, mention it here. Optional. //   //* key is the char you want for the accesskey. Optional. //   //* after is the id of the button you want to follow this one. Optional. //   var na = document.createElement('a'); na.href = url; na.appendChild(document.createTextNode(name)); var li = document.createElement('li'); if(id) li.id = id; li.appendChild(na); var tabs = document.getElementById(where).getElementsByTagName('ul')[0]; if(after) { tabs.insertBefore(li,document.getElementById(after)); } else { tabs.appendChild(li); }   if(id) { if(key && title) { ta[id] = [key, title]; } else if(key) { ta[id] = [key, '']; } else if(title) { ta[id] = ['', title];} }   // re-render the title and accesskeys from existing code in wikibits.js    akeytt; return li; }
