Question
Hello Srini

I am trying to figure out a way to have an ASP.Net application start in a new IE window rather than replace the currently veiwed IE Window.

Is there a way to accomadate this in ASP.Net?

Thanks for your time.

Answer
Hi

I was away thats why i was not able to reply imdtly... Here is my reply

Use this javascript function
<script language="JavaScript">

function new_window(url) {

link = window.open(url,"Link","toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=600,height=500,left=40,top=50");

}
</script>

Then you can either use a button to open it

btnOpen.Attributes.Add ("onClick", "new_window('test.aspx')") - this should be on your code behind

or hyperlink

<asp:HyperLink id="lnkOpen" runat="server">Open</asp:HyperLink
lnkOpen.Attributes.Add("onClick", "new_window('test.aspx')")

Happy Programming!
