How to response.redirect to a new window

Opening a new window is not anything that a server can do, since this is a
client-based (browser) action. So, you'd want to use client-side Javascript
to handle this.

You could also place a target="_blank" attribute within the form tag.
That will make the page open in a new window. I believe that you will
not be able to post back to the original page, though.

you cannot, as browsers do not support this feature (specifiy target with
redirect). you could render popup code (inline javascript to pen new
window), but popup blockers will stop it.

You could use this free popup control or examine its source code detailed in
the associated article to see how to do it yourself:

Bruce, I have done this before in several projects. You can do it. I
just double checked to verify it.

Looking at the code closer I can see that I have the target attribute
accompanied with a method="post".
