Response.Redirect not doing anything..

Adrian Parker · Sep 27, 2004

When using Response.Redirect(var) in my code, the browser just shows a
blank page. It works fine on the development machine (winxp) but not on a
server machine (win2k). If I view the code on the page it's..

<BODY><ASP_SMARTNAV_RDIR
url="/iaw/setstartpage.aspx"></ASP_SMARTNAV_RDIR></BODY>

Any ideas ?

Looks like SmartNavigation is on in this page. Try setting it Off.

hi,
this error comes when you come to the present page via a server.transfer and
then use response.redirect from this page to go to another page and
SmartNavigation enabled.
You can disable smartnavigation for that page or use a server.transfer.

Using server.transfer works a treat.. it also got me past another problem
where some pages weren't formed properly after a refresh.

Many Thanks

Hi Adrian,

As the other communitry member mentioned, this is a known issue in the
ASP.NET serverside when page's "SmartNavigation" property is turn on. And
Server.Transfer has limitation since it can only transfer between pages in
the same web application. In case that you do need to use response.redirect
and keep page's smartNavigation turn on, you can use the following work
around:
turn off the smartNavigation programly before use Response.Redirect, for
exampe:

button_click(...)
{
this.SmartNavigation = false;
Response.Redirect(..);
}

Also, generally we recommend not use SmartNavigation by default because
it'll reduce the page's performance. And here is a former thread discussing
on the same problem, you may also have a look for detailed reference:
