Urgent!!!!!!!! Downlaoding attchments from a file in a new windo

Guest · Sep 28, 2004

Hi

Hope someone out there have a solution for this

Hre is my Problem:
I have a .aspx page in which i display some data along with some filenames.
These files are located on a different server.

When i click on any one of these files, i am able to downlaod them in the
same .aspx page with out any troble.

But my question is, can i downlaod the same file in a new IE window? If so
how am i supposed to do that.

Thx in advance

i dont see the problem
use
window.open("download.aspx?uid=" + someSortOfUniqueIdentifier +
"&DownloadFile=" + filenameToDownload);
the download.aspx file reads the file off the server and writes it to
response object.

a similar way would be to use HyperLink and set the Target property to
_blank

Try this code that should output the necessary client side javascript:
RegisterStartupScript("startupScript", "<script
language=JavaScript>window.open('Mydoc.doc','_blank');</script>")

Hi

Thx for the response. Here is my code

Dim qStr As String
qStr = "'ShowAttachment.aspx?FileNameStr=" & viewstate("Qstr") & "'"
AttachedFilePath.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open(" & qStr &
",null,'status=no,scrollbars=yes,help=no,resizable=yes,menubar=no');return
false;")

I want the attachment to be opend in "page_load" event of new
window('ShowAttachment.aspx) .

hold on... window.open is only executed from client side so you will need to
fire it from
<body onload="window.open('you parameters etc');>

Page_Load is serverside and window.open will have no relevance out there...

considering AttachedFilePath is a hyperlink or a button i think your code
will enable the onclick of the hyperlink / button to open the file in new
window.

Hi

I am calling the onclick event from server side of an "ShowInfo.aspx" page.
And "AttachedFilePath" is a hyperlink in this "ShowInfo.aspx" page. When i
click on this hyperlink, It is opening the file in the "ShowInfo.aspx" with
out any problem.

I tried to open the same file in a new window by passing the different
filename('ShowAttachment.aspx) along with the path as parameter. It is
opening a new window but is not displaying any thing.

My question is how to display the file in page_Load event of
'ShowAttachment.aspx' as it is displaying in the "ShowInfo.aspx"?

Have any idea?

Dim qStr As String
qStr = "'ShowAttachment.aspx?FileNameStr=" & viewstate("Qstr") &
"'"
AttachedFilePath.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open(" & qStr &
",null,'status=no,scrollbars=yes,help=no,resizable=yes,menubar=no');return
false;")

note: this code will not work with a popup blocker. you should use an anchor
with target.
