Response.Redirect generates and Exception

[Guest]

Hi,
I have a try block in which I execute a Page.Response.Redirect("myPage.aspx");

This statement always generates the exception: "Thread was being aborted"
and the execution continues in the catch block.
Is there a way to execute Page.Response.Redirect without generating this
exception?
Or if not, is there at least a way to ignore this exception in the code?

Thank you.

You can do Page.Response.Redirect("myPage.aspx", false);

this will tell it to continue processing the page and THEN redirect....thus
not causing the thread to be aborted....personally, I don't care much for
this solution (not that it's overly bad). What's the deal with the
exception being generated? You can ignore it by swallowing it:

try{
Response.Redirect("blah.aspx");
}catch (ThreadAbortException ex){ }
