   I'm trying to have my plugin create a new custom Media Upload form. I've managed to create the new tab with the code below, but I can't get the form to appear (I just get a blank page when clicking my new tab). Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?

   Any tips very much appreciated!

   add_filter( 'media_upload_tabs', 'ell_gmap_upload_tab' );
   
   function ell_gmap_upload_tab( $tabs ) {
   	$newtab = array('ell_insert_gmap' => __('Google Map','insertgmap'));
   	return array_merge($tabs,$newtab);
   }
   
   /////////////////////////
   
   add_action('media_upload_ell_gmap', 'media_upload_ell_gmap');
   
   function media_upload_ell_gmap() {
   	return wp_iframe('media_upload_ell_gmap_form', $errors );
   }
   
   function media_upload_ell_gmap_form() { ?>
   	HTML Form
   <?php
   }

   OK, got it to work now.
   

   add_filter( 'media_upload_tabs', 'ell_gmap_upload_tab' );
   
   function ell_gmap_upload_tab( $tabs ) {
   	$newtab = array('ell_insert_gmap_tab' => __('Google Map','insertgmap'));
   	return array_merge($tabs,$newtab);
   }
   
   /////////////////////////
   
   add_action('media_upload_ell_insert_gmap_tab', 'media_upload_ell_gmap_tab');
   
   function media_upload_ell_gmap_tab() {
   	return wp_iframe('media_upload_ell_gmap_form', $errors );
   }
   
   function media_upload_ell_gmap_form() {
   	?>
   	HTML Form
   <?php
   }

   Thanks,

   figured it out, here.

   but now i don't know how to pass information from that tab to the window.
   i've tried to create a form that will send something, like this:

   function media_upload_choose_background_form() {
   	echo media_upload_header();
   	?>
   
   	<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="http://www.mimi.me/wp-admin/media-upload.php?type=image&tab=insert_choose_background&post_id=0&mysetting=myvalue">
   		<h3 class="media-title">Choose Background:</h3>
   	<input name="send" id="send" class="button" value="Insert into Post" type="submit">
   	</form>
   <?php
   }

   and it didn't worked. i tried playing with the information that sends with the action call in the form (e.g. tab=insert_choose_background and so on...), but i got nothing...
