Please see my attached scripts  . I manged to open a new window  by clicking 2  times on a button using this script . I want to do this by only one click.

Public Shared Sub Opennewwindow(ByVal Opener As System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebControl, ByVal PagePath As String)


        Dim Clientscript As String
        Clientscript = "window.open('" & PagePath & "')"
        Opener.Attributes.Add("Onclick", Clientscript)
    End Sub

Select allOpen in new window

Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        '    Me.mpe.Show()
        Try
            'If Not Request("eid") Is Nothing Then

            Dim strEvtGUID As String = "Select EventGUID FROM Events WHERE EventID='" + Request("eid") + "' "
            Dim evtGUID As Guid = Dbc.ExecScalar(strEvtGUID, PageDbConn)
            Dim str As String = String.Format("../../../../events/RegForm.aspx?id={0}", evtGUID)

Catch ex As Exception

        End Try
       

    End Sub

Hi,

Move the code which is inside "Opennewwindow" function to "Page_Load" event.

but how, i need to get page_path  in this code from the  on click event handler of button.how can this be accomodated. Page_pathh will only be generated when i click "button1"

wherei try this code.. IS it in the bytton on click event handler?

YES.

i hav etried this the button  on click event ahandler. it does not  go up after single click infact it does not open at all

Can you post the code of Button1_Click event handler?

Problem may be in some other line. Because the code provided by me works fine here.

code is posted in the first post of this question

Hei rajapandian_81,
Yes i ccan open ta newwindow using your code script. but the problem is that i haveto press Ctrl-alt along with pressing the mouse button. but   the requirement of my client is that  we should be open a new window withourt clicking vtrl + alt .
it n be able to open simply by csingle clicking button.

May be you are using ajax(update panels) then the script calling in button click should be as below.

ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(this, this.GetType(), "NewWindow", "<script type=\"text/javascript\"> window.open('" & PagePath & "'); </script>", false);

By using scriptmanger.registerstartupscript(....), it does not open at all, and by using page.registerstartupscript(...) it opens bu clikcing ctrl-alt , adn mouse click(pop up blocker )in internet explorer , and there is not pop up blocker instaled in my broweser.
on safari , it does not open at all, when i use page.registerstartup script

Windows and frames are client-side concepts.

If you want to the browser to open a new window then either you need to send some javascript to the browser,  or specify a target.

In this case it seems easier to specify a target in the form. The new window will be opened when the user clicks the button.

<form target="_blank" method="post" action="yourscript.aspx">
<input type="submit" value="Ok" />
</form>

If you need, you can write a script that changes the target on the click on the button.

<form method="post" action="yourscript.aspx">
<input type="button" value="Ok" onclick="this.form.target='_blank';this.form.submit();" />
</form>


I realize that this is basic HTML/javascript, and that ASP.Net sometimes makes it very hard to use basic HTML coding. But maybe it is of use to you.
