open a url from a tpl file after correct syntax for the brackets as not to confuse the php compiler

{if $smarty.session.ProSchBth == 'P'}
{* HERE I NEED IT TO OPEN http://localhost/home/hiv/public_html/advprovideredit.php?search_new=1 *}
{* {include file='user_home_stats.tpl'} *}
{* THIS IS WHAT IT DOES NOW WHEN IT RUNS *}
{include file='advprovideredit.tpl'}

{* BUT I NEED IT TO OPEN THIS LINK BELOW INSTEAD BUT NOT SURE OF THE SYNTAX TO PUT
ROUND THE URL LINK *}
<a href="http://localhost/home/hiv/public_html/advprovideredit.php?search_new=1" target="_blank">HTML Help</a>

{elseif $smarty.session.ProSchBth == 'S'}

I'm not sure to have understood your question. Want you the right code to print a link if $smarty.session.ProSchBth == 'P'? If so, take a look at this:

echo '<a href="http://localhost/home/hiv/public_html/advprovideredit.php?search_new=1" target="_blank">HTML Help</a> ';
}elseif...

that give me a link that works but i want it to just open the page insted of the link,
as it is on open the page for the tpl auto loads
but i need the php page to be called and auto load in stead.
so instead of a link i need it to just load the page instead
thanks for the help so far

Do you wish open that link in a new tab/window or in the same tab/window?

same window just when the page is opened depending on the if statment it will auto open the page in the same window, but if i get he syntax for the page running i can play with the rest

Marco Gasi

What about

if ($smarty.session.ProSchBth == 'P'){
header("location: http://localhost/home/hiv/public_html/advprovideredit.php?search_new=1");
}elseif...
