Hi,

Does anyone know how to open an ASP.NET 2.0 page in a separate browser
window? I'm trying to show images when the user clicks a thumbnail and I
want the user to be able to see the image and the thumbnail at the same
time.

Thanks.

ASP.NET is irrelevant in this case. Opening the new window happens on
the client, so it's a HTML and/or JavaScript issue.

For example:

<a href="image01.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="thumbnails/image01.jpg"></a>

HTH,

Have you tried Response.Write("<script>window.open('page.aspx')</script>")?
that should do a popup style window. The window.open call also allows you to
size and customize the window as appropriate.

most popup blockers will prevent this approach. it is not a good practice.
