How to display an popup error message from the global.asax file
Hello all,
I'm handling unexpected exceptions in the Global.asax's Application_Error event. The current code in the Application_Error event gathers the exception info and notifies the dev staff, then redirects the user to an friendly error page with a link to the application's home page. The issue I'm having is that there is a process which opens a page in a new window where additional processing occurs. If an exception occurs in the new window, the home page redirection, of course, takes place from that point. What I would like to do is open the error page in a separate window via jscript, but this doesn't seem possible from global asax. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Zaghaghi,
How would I do this? I can't inject any script from global.asax since I don't have access to the response object.

when you cath the errors in global.asax you can redirect to a page that shows error(s)
why do you need to display an popup error?

Zaghaghi,
As I explained above, there is a process that executes in a page that was opened in a separate window, so if an exception occurs in that window, any navigation will occur in that window's space, leaving the previous window open in the background. Also, I don't want to navigate away from the current page.
