Redirect/Transfer to a new _blank page

[mz]

Using the GridView control and a Command button in the GridViewRow I'm
trying to "redirect" to a popup page. I currently have to do it using
Javascript and I'm wondering if there is a more elegent way do do it using
the Redirect or Transfer comman.

Thanks

Transfer(...) will only cause the server to switch which page it's
executing; the result will still display in whatever browser window the
asp page happens to be opening in. Similar for Redirect(...) - this
will instruct the browser to redirect, but it will probably still
switch page in the same window. Hence, Javascript is probably the
easiest way to do it
