Hi Bryan,

I don't think it is possible, but you can gain almost the same basic
features with a Page class as you have in your code.

Best Regards,

Bryan,

You can't. The classes in the System.Windows.Forms namespace are
intended for client side use only. When generating pages in ASP.NET, you
are producing markup that will be rendered on the client machine by a
browser. A "control" in the ASP.NET sense is just a collection of markup
and script (possibly).

Hope this helps.
 
Ok then how do I open a new window? Besides windows.open(.....)???

Somewhere, where you would like to send it to the user's client with the use
of the Response.Write() method.

Note: the code is still on the client side like the javascript window.open()
