Open Page

[Wes]

This should be really simple ... but how to do it has been
eluding me ...

I am writing an ASP.NET application and am using
ASP.ImageButtons & ASP.Buttons. Instead of redirecting to
another page (ie. Response.Redirect("xxx.htm")) I want to
open the page in another window. Sounds pretty basic,
but .....

If you can help, I'd sure appreciate it.

Thanks,

Wes

You should use an html image link instead of an asp.net
control if you are just redirecting to a new page. It is
less weight. Opening a new browser is done on the client-
side so the only way you could get an asp.net control to
open a new page is to dynamically write javascript to the
page to open a new window when the button was clicked. (I
think)

Anyways here is some javascript code and how you would
call it in a page to open an new window.

Javascript code:
<!-- Begin
function NewWindow(mypage, myname, w, h, scroll) {
var winl = (screen.width - w) / 2;
var wint = (screen.height -
h) /2;winprops='height='+h+',width='+w+',top='+wint+',left
='+winl+',scrollbars='+scroll+',resizable'
win = window.open(mypage, myname, winprops)
// <li><a
href="../Conferences/2002_National_Conference/index1.asp">2
002 CSEPP National Conference</a> June 26-27, 2002, in
Lexington, Kentucky
if (parseInt(navigator.appVersion) >= 4) { win.window.focus
(); }
}
// End -->

HTML IMAGE LINK TO PUT IN YOUR PAGE(can be in .net html
page)
NOTE: The window name parameter cannot contain spaces.

<A onmouseover="document['ImgUsage'].src
='MouseOverImage.gif" onmouseout="document
['ImgUsage'].src='NormalImage.gif'" onclick="NewWindow
(this.href,'WindowName','740','530','yes');return false;"
href="usage_policy.asp" >


Hope this helps
