FWIW, I've set the following for 'icon_image' in the Nagios hostextinfo
stanza:

icon_image  redhat.gif' border="0" width=20 height=20><A TARGET="_blank" HREF="/cgi-bin/perfparse.cgi?select_metric=1&host_name=myhost" BORDER="0"><img src='/nagios/images/graph.png

Yes, that's all one line. The game being played is to fit into the HTML
being generated by nagios. The first icon ("redhat.gif", in the example)
is just to show the OS of the host. We then close out the (unshown,
generated by Nagios) IMG tag, and then add a new link to the perfparse
CGI, setting the host name and bringing up the metric selection list. I
use the 'graph.png' img as my link "text", and the Nagios CGI will close
the tag. (The links and filenames will need to be adjusted to your
particular installation, of course.

I chose to do this on per host basis, you could use the serviceextinfo
stanza and do it on per service basis, probably.
