hey guys,

any idea on how to create a tab in a facebook page which if clicked will take you to another facebook page?

I have 2 brands which will be sold through 1 portal/shop. Both brand facebook pages need to have a facebook tab which either
a. if clicked, hyperlinks them to go straight out of facebook to the portal/shop website
(not to the actual shop page, but just to the main root page of the website)
OR
b. if clicked, hyperlinks them to go to the shop page(facebook page) on facebook.

Anyone have step by step guides on how to do this? I don't want to create iframes within a facebook page, but actual redirects to either a website or another facebook page if a tab is clicked.

Let me know your thoughts
 
Well, as much as I know about Facebook development

You can:
1. Create your own html pages with 'html tab' (I think it's called that)
2. You can or could specify which tab must display when someone opens your facebook page.
3. If I am correct about the html tab 'app', and if it works like normal web development, allowing all coding possibilities,
Then you must just, if someone clicks on the html tab to go to the other page, let javascript run on that page like this and
it will redirect to the given url.

Add this to the head of your html page, so when it loads it redirects immediately.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.location.href = "http://www.facebook.com/name.of.your.page";
</script>
</head>
<body>
loading...
</body>
</html>
