You may do it easily with nsdialogs, ex:
outfile test.exe



!include MUI2.nsh

!include nsdialogs.nsh



page custom  nsDialogsPage

!insertmacro MUI_PAGE_INSTFILES



!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"





Function nsDialogsPage



    nsDialogs::Create /NOUNLOAD 1018

        Pop $0



    ${IfThen} $0 == error ${|} Abort ${|}



    ${NSD_CreateGroupBox} 0u 13u 85% 45% "If you dare click the button"

        Pop $R0



    ${NSD_CreateButton}  140 40u 20% 12u "Read Me!"

        Pop $R0



    ${NSD_OnClick} $R0 ShowReadme



    nsDialogs::Show



FunctionEnd





Function ShowReadme



    ExecShell open `${NSISDIR}\Docs\nsdialogs\Readme.html`



FunctionEnd

Thanks Red Wine,

Now I can do it well. However, I have one more question.
In my case, user click on BUTTON 1 to run my application,the other buttons is disable.After finishing process, I want to disable button 1 and enable button 1 to install the second application.
My code here:







Function .onInit



        InitPluginsDir

	File /oname=$PLUGINSDIR\test.ini test.ini

	WriteINIStr "$PLUGINSDIR\test.ini" "Field 2" "Flags" "DISABLED|NOTIFY"



FunctionEnd





Function ShowCustom

  InstallOptions::initDialog /NOUNLOAD "$INI"

  Pop $0

  InstallOptions::show

  Pop $0

FunctionEnd





Function LeaveCustom1

	ReadINIStr $0 $INI "Settings" "State"

	StrCmp $0 1 Button1

	StrCmp $0 2 Button2

	StrCmp $0 0  ReadMe

        Abort

      Button1:

         SetOutPath $PLUGINSDIR

         File "prog\wmp11.exe"

         Exec "$PLUGINSDIR\wmp11.exe"



         WriteINIStr $INI "Field 1" "Flags" "DISABLED"

         WriteINIStr $INI "Field 2" "Flags" ""



	Button2:

         File "prog\yms9.exe"

         Exec "$PLUGINSDIR\yms9.exe"



         WriteINIStr $INI "Field 2" "Flags" "DISABLED"

         WriteINIStr $INI "Field 3" "Flags" ""



        ReadMe:

             SetOutPath $PLUGINSDIR

             File "prog\readme.txt"

             ExecWait "readme.txt"

             Abort

FunctionEnd
question:
I do not know how to change state button from disable to enable and otherwise when I has already shown custom page.
In my code, ReadMe part also does not execute file readme.
click Button1 wmp11 not run file.
Your help is very useful for me,
Thank a lot.

I wish I could figure what exactly you're trying to do with this page...
You have assigned the readme execution with the next > button, is this what you want?
You can't use ExecWait "readme.txt", change it to ExecShell open "readme.txt".

I'll suggest again use nsDialogs, it's much easier.
