   I add my own page like this:

   add_menu_page("My Controls",
                 "My Controls",
                 "manage_options",
                 "../wp-content/plugins/myplugin/my-controls.php",
                 "");

   Now, when I click on the original admin menu links from my menu page, the links are relative to my folder - they don't work.

   How do I fix this?

   I've tried using this code instead of directly referencing a php page:

   add_menu_page("My Controls",
                 "My Controls",
                 "manage_options",
                 "my-controls",
                 array(&$this->my_templates, 'my_controls'));

   Now the links to other admin menus work fine, as my menu page is rendered as admin.php?page=my-controls, so the current working directory is still /wp-admin.

   However, this is less flexible as I now rely on admin.php to set up the page elements for me. For example, admin-header.php is added by admin.php before I have a chance to use wp_enqueue_scripts.

   I can enqueue scripts by hooking into add_action('init', 'enqueue_my_scripts'), but this is elsewhere in my code, and is not nice and modular.

   Hope these details aren't too confusing, and I appreciate any advice you may have!
