i think you chould clear out the 2nd param

i have checked this one also
if i remove second argument , by default it takes true this means
response.redirect will stop the existing thread and go for new thread
but here it is not enable to open next page so a blank page comes.
so if i put false , framework do not close current thread and try to
open next page thread but here also it is not able to open next page
so current page remains there

When you do a response.redirect like this, the server should send a
302 HTTP response with a location header that tells the browser where
to go. The browser will then do an HTTP GET for that location. A
Netmon trace (or a trace using Ethereal) will give you an indication
as to what is breaking down.
