Opening a Page in a New browser

[Sumaira Ahmad]

Hi,

I would like to know if this is possible and how?? Please help..
I have an ASP.NET Web application..
In an aspx page within the application I have a hyperlink whose
NavigateUrl property is set to some other aspx page such as
NewPage.aspx.. When i click on that hyperlink it takes me to the
NewPage.aspx on the same browser. However is it possible to open that
new page in a new browser instead of the same one??

For instance I was following the DIME attachment example from
http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/090804-1.aspx by Scott
Mitchell

and was curious to know if

Hyperlink.NavigateUrl =
"http://localhost/DIMEExampleCSharp/LatestPDF.pdf";
will open up a new browser and show the PDF file in the new browser.

This obviously is a very generic question and would hence apply to any
ASP Web application.

Please, any help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Sumaira

You can oopen any page in a new browser instance, by setting the "target"
attribute of a hyperlink to "_blank" or by using the JavaScript
window.open() method.
