Popup Window on Button Push

Can anyone tell me how I can open a new browser window when a button is
pressed?

I tried adding an <a href=...> encapsulating the button, but it didnt work.

Any suggestions?

Try adding this in your page init:

btnName.Attributes.Add("onclick", "pop_window();return false;")

and put your script for it in the html <head>, for example:

<script language="javascript">
function pop_window()
{
var confirmWin = null;
confirmWin = window.open('Scanned.aspx', 'WindowName',
'width=300,height=400,left=200,top=200,toolbar=no, resizable=no,menubar=n
o');
}
</script>

hope this helps.

in adition to Kathys replay,

If you'r using ASP:Button add :
window.event.returnValue = false;
window.event.cancelBubble = true;

to prevent postback.

Nat, where does this go exactly?

window.event.returnValue = false;
window.event.cancelBubble = true;
