opening a second page without closing the previous one

[ton]

Hi,
can someone please tell me hou to open a second webpage, I tried:
Response.Redirect("WebForm1.aspx", False)

but this replaces the existing page with the new one. All I want is a second
page.

(I write everything in VB.NET)

Many Thanx

Ton

From the server - you can't. You can get this to occur from the client side
but you need to open it like a Popup does.. Add this to the ASPX file

<script language="javascript" id="popupJS">
<!--

function showPopup(link)
{
var lBufferX=10,lBufferY=30,lWidth=400;
var lLeft=screen.availWidth - lWidth - lBufferX;
window.open(link, "_blank", "scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes, toolbar=yes,
location=yes, menubar=yes, width=" + lWidth + ", height=" +
(screen.availHeight - lBufferY) + ", left=" + lLeft, true);
}
//-->
</script>

and make your link (or whatever) something like this

<a href="javascript: showPopup('Help.Aspx')">
<img src="images/help.gif" alt="Context sensitive help...">
</a>

By the way - pop-up blockers will stop this from working.
