Hello. I am working on having a commandfield link on a gridview open another
window but in a more smaller regulated style (specified height, width,
sizable, etc). An example is the window that opens up here to enter the new
question/reply in. I seek help on how this is accomplished.
Thanks.
John
 
You can bind a javascript function to commandField link on rowDataBound
event. Inside javascript you can use this script
window.open ("newpage.aspx",
"mywindow","menubar=0,resizable=1,width=450,height=250");
 
Thanks to the both of you. Each comment gave me more ideas to use for this
and else where.

Bear in mind that, whereas the window.open method will probably work OK on
an internal intranet site, it is liable to cause you huge problems on a
public Internet site due to popup blockers, etc...

I realized that just after I sent the email back. I thought back to the
SSRS project and I used something similar there and it did not work. I've
been googling some more and found a possible way of opening a new window.

Do have another question tho. I have a master page that has a row of
linkbuttons on it. These linkbuttons open up the different applications that
are being developed. The webapps are using a nested master page inheriting
from the master page, including the css. Is there a way to not show the row
of linkbuttons when the webapps are opened up?
