This question about Topic Markup Language and applications: Answered
I would like to use BUTTON to link back to the start page with a hidden menubar. When using a common link I would simply append ?cover=plain to the link. How can I achieve a hidden menubar with a BUTTON parameter without using href? The problem with href is, that foswiki is embeded within a frame and the foswiki in the url in the address bar remains the same (the foswiki start page) even if I navigate through the wiki articles. This also means, that BUTTON in combination with href has no effect and I remain on the site I am looking at.
However, the parameter target works perfectly fine but I wasn't able to hide the menubar and I don't want it to be seen. Or what would be the best way to solve this?
This is the code I'm using:
%BUTTON{
"%MAKETEXT{"StartPage"}%"
target="Main.CustomStartPage"
}% %CLEAR%
If I change target to target="Main.CustomStartPage?cover=plain" it gets redirected to
CustomStartPage %3fcover%3dplain which leads to a "Missing or illegal web name"-error.
I'm using foswiki 2.1.6

I managed to get this working. I accidently had an error in the href parameter. It worked by using:
%BUTTON{
"%MAKETEXT{"StartPage"}%"
href="%DEFAULTURLHOST%%SCRIPTURLPATH{"view"}%/%USERSWEB%/CustomStartPage?cover=plain"
}% %CLEAR%
