Hi, I want to open a new page from an asp page without using Javascript.

Is it possible?

Tks
 
<a href="something.aspx" target="_blank">Click me.</a>
or
<asp:HyperLink ID="YourHyperLinkID" Runat="server" Target="_blank">Click
me.</asp:HyperLink>

You could probably use client-side VBScript. Not portable to other
platforms, of course.

This involves someone clicking the hyperlink though. Not the page opening a
new window at will.
 
Yes Marina, I think it's impossible to open a new asp form in "behind" vb
code of my form.

From de server side it's, I think, impossible to open a new explorer window.
But, I hoped someone had a new, amazing response

True. However, it is the ONLY alternative to using JavaScript to open a
window.

I didn't see that restriction specified in the OP's post. Assuming that is
what Ghislain wants to happen, my vote goes with your answer. :]

:) Yes, he wasn't clear about the requirements.

The server can't control what is happening on the client's desktop. There
is no way of getting around the fact that at some pt there has to be some
javascript to open the window.
 
Well, there's always Eric's suggestion of VBScript. Technically, that
answers the question, but I think I'll read that answer with tongue-in-cheek
mode in mind. :]
