Response.Write with QueryString and Target

[sck10]

Hello,

I am trying to redirect to a new URL using a query string and target. I can
not figure out how the syntax should be for setting the target. Any help
with this would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Public strQuote As String = """"
Dim strTarget As String = "target=" & strQuote & "_blank" & strQuote
Response.Redirect("srcfinance.aspx?qv01=14&print=p rintme" & strTarget)

You can't use a target with Response.Redirect. When the page is executed
on the server, it's already decided where the resulting page will be loaded.

Either you have to use the target when the request is made, or you have
to output a page that contains Javascript that will set the location of
the window or frame where you want to load the page.

Hi,

Thank you for your post!

Based on my understanding, you are trying to redirect to a page and want it
open in a new window.

It's not possible to do this in Response.Redirect, because frames and
windows are client-side concepts. The only possible workaround is the usage
of JavaScript. You can do a simple Response.Write inline with a JavaScript
call to window.open for the specified url. For example:

Response.Write("<script language=javascript>window.open('WebForm2.aspx',
'_blank');

Hope this helps. If anything is unclear, please feel free to post here.
