Open Internet Explorer Page
Hopefully someone can help, I'm trying to simply get a page on my installer so after the user agrees to the license agreement, they can then see a page that says, CHECK FOR ONLINE UPDATE and choose a button that will open our page in IE where we will have version numbers listed so the user can download the update if needed (most likely though).

I have this roughly but can't get it to work and keep putting in code here & there that won't work.
;----------------------
Page customs customPage "" "Online Update Check"
---- more pages of course
;---------------------
Function customPage
(insert button function with name "Update Check" linked to website below, don't know how to do it?)
NSISdl::download http://www.mysite.update.html $R0

and that's it, I don't know how to add a new BUTTON onto the page that says "Check For Update" and then this link will open internet explorer (or whatever they have) and navigate to that page.

Thanks anyone.


Compile the InstallOptions testnotify.nsi example in the Contrib\InstallOptions dir.
