Open page in new window instead of using redirect

[moondaddy]

I need to open a page in a new window from the code behind. Normally I use
response.redirect to navigate to a new page but up to now its always been in
the same window. I know how to do it from JavaScript in the browser, but
this logic needs to run from the server.

Any good ideas?

You'll have to write out a script that runs when the page loads to switch the page, you can't open a new browser from the server. The Page.RegisterStartupScript() method would work great for this.

this.RegisterClientScriptBlock("","<script language='JavaScript'>
window.showModalDialog('url','mynewwindow','myoptions');</script>");

Write javascript from your codebehind and add it to the page.controls
collection.

example:
Page.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("<script language =
\"javascript\">"));
Page.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl(window.open("xyz.htm"));
Page.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl("</script>"));

Try this

Response.Write("<script
type='text/javascript'>detailedresults=window.open('..Your Page
Here...');</script>")
