Response.Redirect to a filepath

[marccruz]

Hi,

I am creating a test web site that allows me to click a button which
redirects me to a file path. I implemented some code to attempt this
but I keep getting a blank page. How do I correctly redirect to a
file path?

The code I've tried is shown below:

Protected Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Response.Redirect("file:///C:/", False)
End Sub


Thank you

Not sure what you are trying to do ? Also AFAIK most browsers won't let a
web site to direct the browser to a local resource (at least with the
default security settings)...
See for example the note on
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa767731.aspx (documentation for
the file protocol).
