Invalid URI

[Chris McIlvoy]

Here is my line of code

Page.Response.Redirect("http://about:blank")

Here is the error I am gettin

Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed.

Could someone please explain?

I think you just want to put:

Page.Response.Redirect("about:blank");

That's an internal page and doesn't use HTTP.

Actually, to be precise, "about" is a separate protocol. Having
http://about: is the same as saying http://ftp:, it just doesn't make sense.

Another option is to use view state, and dynamically create a javascript
onLoad event in the client response page that opens 'about:blank'... that's
got more chance of working.
