Navigation is ASP.Net...

[Mohamud Faruk]

I am writing a web based application using ASP.Net.
As part of the application flow I am calling several web forms and the user
can navigate between different forms.
Currently I am aware of Server.Transfer(" .aspx") and Response.Redirect("
..aspx") statements.

1.Is there any other statements that I can use other than these. Is there
any other way I can use navigation between web forms?

2. I have a difficulty of retaining the values when the user navigates to
search screen and comes back to the previous screen. I don't know how to
implement that in web based application.

I appreciate your suggestions.
Mohamud.

Take a look at the ViewState and Session objects. Both
allow you to store temporary information server-side for
use in other places throughout the application.

This link should provide an intro for you:

ViewState stores data in hidden fields on the client-
side. Sorry, sometimes I type quicker than I think

Here's a good little navigation control including source and it includes
state management for the control, from which you can probably begin to
extrapolate your other state management requirements.
