Popup new window from server side

[Guest]

How do you popup a new window with data from the server side? I need to keep
the original browser window open, go to the server and get some data and open
a new window (browsing to another site) with this data.

you dont. You will have to pass the request for a new window to the client.

Why don't you just have an href with a target of "_blank", building up the
URL's querystring as required so that the new window knows what to do...?

When I have to do this, I use a Page.RegisterStartupScript to fire a small
javascript that opens a new window when the parent one posts back and
reloads. You can see the technique at

(meant for loading Crystal Reports, but you'll get the idea).
