 * $button->render(PORTFOLIO_ADD_FULL_FORM, get_string('addeverythingtoportfolio', 'yourmodule'));

 * $button = new portfolio_add_button(array('callbackclass' => 'name_of_caller_class', 'callbackargs' => array('id' => 6), 'callbackfile' => '/your/mod/lib.php'));
 * $somehtml .= $button->to_html(PORTFOLIO_ADD_TEXT_LINK);
