All signs seems to point that way. When the Fastline guy was presenting I was very excited to see some of the samples he showed, not knowing that we have to "GET" Fastline service to be able to achieve those website look.
The buttons are html with javascript links... I would like to know how I can get this to work in the new SM pricing page which is just a page, with HTML.

Can you give 'one example' here since no one has seen what kind of JS you are calling? Its kind of hard to answer a 'How To' question without knowing what you are actually trying to do (beyond simply running JS).
Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (denied) isn't associated with any program.
You might need to install other software to open this address.
Ok, the only thing that javascript is doing in the code you posted is opening up your order form link in a new popup window using the 'window.open' JS function.

thanks Derek. Yeah remember under legacy you didn't need the full link only the partial because SM was smart enough back then to know where everything was coming from. I will take your advice and see if it works.
We have made some changes that will not allow those JS buttons to work. This is in line with every other thread we are having this discussion in. We are intaking all of the specific tools you guys are currently using JS for, and researching a clean and responsible way to get them implemented. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

I have a site of photographs for a local High School Team. I provide Free downloads to the kids and parents. I use Javascript to provide local advertising banners to allow sponsors to offset my costs. This is great in the legacy site. I have been working in the sandbox for the new smugmug and have no way to allow a random banner ad from a gallery that has a click URL.
I tried the slideshow but there is no way to cleanly add a url when clicking on the image (i did try html in the comment and then show comment). The slideshow is never random so I cannot control which image it starts with. The margins of the slideshow are too big and my banner is only 60 pixels tall and the fixed size requires 200 as a minimum. I can set to a fixed 3x1 aspect and it looks ok, but it always starts with the same image. and again I cannot click to go to the url.
Please help by giving me a easy random rotating banner capability with URL link or just give me my simple javascript ability back for the header.

Hi guys. This does not fit my business model as I feature photos taken by dozens of volunteers. I do not want smugmug or me to sell these photos, so there is no 'store' aspect. But I do run banner ads on the pages in order to try to get back some of my $200 a year. Without the ability to run javascript, I no longer can run the banner ads.
I don't think they had in mind my type of user (business display only, not sell) at all... I think the new design looks great and I'd be ready to hit UNVEIL but I can't unless I can monetize the site. bp

hmm...watching it again.

from 15:30 if anyone wants to do the same.
edit: Fastline guy is very upbeat about features that *should* reduce the amount of business he gets from smugmug customers....

How is that different from what you already do from your Menu > Pricing here: http://www.pipercreekphotography.com/Pages/Investment

when I have tried to enter this in a regular page. It fails to open...I am assuming it's is because of the javascript.
Message I get when trying to click on button.
denied:javascript:void%28%20window.open%28'https://secure.jotform.us/form/30567599775171', 'blank','scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,width=700,height=500'))
The address wasn't understood

You can do something very similar using HTML like you have on this page:
http://pipercreekphotography.smugmug.com/Website-Content/Investment
When inspecting the code on this page it uses HTML like this:
[HTML]<a href="https://secure.jotform.us/pipercreekphotography/giftcert" id="yui_3_8_0_1_1375753451966_214">
<img src="/Other/My-SmugMug-Site-Files-Do-Not/i-Wdj6HFK/0/O/buy-it-button.png" alt="book it" width="90" height="35" border="0" id="yui_3_8_0_1_1375753451966_213">
</a>[/HTML]
If you want to open a new page use target="_blank" inside the HTML <a href> tag. See this example: http://www.quackit.com/html/codes/html_open_link_in_new_window.cfm
Lastly you may need to use your full URL to point toward your buttons like this:

Allen, you can list this in the Feature Request Forum.

Allen, you can do this to at least some extent with CSS alone. For example, this would hide keywords "bird" and "dog":
.sm-tile-keywords a[href$="/bird"], .sm-tile-keywords a[href$="/dog"] {
display:none !important;
}
Please check out my gallery of customisations for the New SmugMug, more to come!
