Conflict in ASP vs Javascript

[rkagrawal]

I am not sure if this is the right forum to post about this problem , but , i just want to discuss a problem i recently encountered.

I was developing a page in ASP , where i came across a problem.

The last few lines of code were like this :

'------ Popup page
response.write("<script language=javascript>alert('Hello')</script>")
response.write("<script language=javascript>window.open('nlok.php?UserName ="&UserName&"&Email="&Email&"','','width=600,heigh t=600,left=50,top=50,screenX=0,screenY=100,resizab le=yes,status=no,menubar=no')</script>")

Response.Redirect"registered.asp"

Despite of the code being perfect , the popup wasnt loading.

I then realized the possibility . The ASP Redirect wasnt giving the time required by Javascript to process the popup.

I hence decided to replace Response.Redirect with Javascript command to forward the page:

response.write("<script language=javascript>window.open('registered.asp',' _self')</script>")

It was working perfectly fine , but then another blow , I E 7 wasnt allowing this redirect , and i do not know why.

The solution i have in mind is , to place a PAUSE between ASP Redirect and the JAVASCRIPT popup code .

I know about some free components which can help me achieve this , but i am willing to do it without use of any external component.

I welcome any response.

Thanks.

Rahul, you should use javascript to do your redirect, not asp. That will help you to be sure that your javascript is executed. You'll want to use window.location() to move the browser to a new url. Also, window.setTimeout() will let you cause the javascript to sleep for a few seconds before forwarding. Give it a shot using those methods and I will help you if you run into a snag.
