for i in refsList:

for elements in references:
    location = elements.rfind("/")
    name = elements[(location+1):len(elements)]
    myFileName = elements
    main(elements)

So what I'm wanting to do here is have it so that a button is added for each loop into a main general window (this would be done at the bottom)..so at the end of it I would have one window with as many buttons as necessary. What I have now is a bunch of seperate popup windows coming up each time. Any help?
