Open a *new* window?

I would like my web app to open a new browser window,
similar to a standard target="_blank" form tag.

The new page must preserve Session information, and have
control passed to the Form_Load event.

I have tried Server.Transfer, Response.Redirect and
setting the form target to "_blank", but none of these
have worked.

Please any help?

Thanks

AFAIK, you cannot maintain session state between separate browser windows.
You will need to use another method of state persistence, IE querystrings,
cookies, etc.

Do it on the client side using javascript - window.open.

to open new window you have 2 choices
1. add target="_blank" to form tag
2. use javascript
on server side cmdLink.Attributes.Add("onclick",
"javascript:window.open(..........);")
both choices will preserve session
