Open ASP page in new window

[Beesknees]

Does anyone know how to open an asp page so it opens up a new window in IE? I don't want it to target the frame. Thanks.

do the processing through a javascript function, this way you can open the window however you wish. it's a bit of a hack, but it's the only way that I can think of doing it.

if you pass params through the querystring,pass them into your jscript fxn, and just concat the results.

eg:

function myredirect(name, add) {
var url="somepage.asp?name=" + name + "&add=" + add;
location.href=url;
}

that should give you an idea...

This is probably to simple a solution, however why don't you just use the target tag <a hre=&quot;mypage.asp&quot; target=&quot;none&quot;>

This will make the page open in it's own window.

what about if I want to do trhis from a hyperlink, if i call the javascript from the href tag then it tries to find a page with the name of the function + parameters.
Bit of a newbie but what tag/function/event do I use for this. It MUST be a hyperlink. Any ideas?

<a href=&quot;javascript:&quot; onClick=&quot;functionName()&quot;>click here</a>

Put this just below you head statement

<SCRIPT Language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!-- // Begin hiding script from crummy old browsers...
var messageWindow;

function newWindow(messageID){
messageWindow = window.open(messageID, 'MessageWin', 'Width=450,height=340,location=yes')
messageWindow.focus()
}
// end hiding from the old crap ass browsers -->
</SCRIPT>

Put this in you html code....

<a href=&quot;javascript:newWindow('TheDay.asp')&quot;>Thanksgiving Holiday</a>

and just name &quot;TheDay.asp&quot; something else... and check it out..
