Im quite new to javascript so i need some help.
If i want to make a button that is linked to a website
and open it in a new window how do i do
For example i write

<head>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

<-- Begin
function goToURL() { window.location = "http://www.google.com; }
// End -->
</script>

</head>

<body>

<form>
<input type=button value="Google" onClick="goToURL()">
</form>

</body>

What should i write to make the website open in a new window?

And what do i write if i want many buttons linked to different websites?

To have it open in a new window and use it for many buttons you would change your function to this:
function goToURL(linkid) { window.open(linkid,"win1"); }
Then your buttons like this:
<input type=button value="Google" onClick="goToURL('http://www.google.com')">

When you click on the button the function goToURL is called and the web page is passed to the function and the variable linkid holds this value.
