If you understand how redirects work, then you also know it is "not possible" to redirect into a new window, because a redirect on the server causes a special HTTP response to be sent to the users browser, the client. The browsers native implementation interprets the special response code and sends the user off to the destination. There's no built-in mechanism or standard for specifying a new window. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://weblogs.asp.net/infinitiesloop/archive/2007/09/25/response-redirect-into-a-new-window-with-extension-methods.aspx"><P>The only way to open a new window is for it to be initiated on the client side, whether it be through script or clicking on a link.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://weblogs.asp.net/infinitiesloop/archive/2007/09/25/response-redirect-into-a-new-window-with-extension-methods.aspx"><P>So the solution always proposed to this problem is to instead write out some script that opens the window, rather than using Response.Redirect:</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://weblogs.asp.net/infinitiesloop/archive/2007/09/25/response-redirect-into-a-new-window-with-extension-methods.aspx"><DIV class="codeSample"><PRE><SPAN>&lt;</SPAN><SPAN>script</SPAN> type<SPAN>=</SPAN><SPAN>"text/javascript"</SPAN><SPAN>&gt;</SPAN></PRE><PRE>    window.open(<SPAN>"foo.aspx"</SPAN>);</PRE><PRE><SPAN>&lt;/</SPAN><SPAN>script</SPAN><SPAN>&gt;</SPAN></PRE></DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/99451016-5171-4AB9-A11A-0AE556C53BAF/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
