Question

I have an asp.net application, where the user would click a button and launch another page (within the same application). The issue I am facing is that the original page an

Answer 1

This button post to the current page while at the same time opens OtherPage.aspx in a new browser window. I think this is what you mean with ...the original page and the newly launched page should both be launched.

<asp:Button ID="myBtn" runat="server" Text="Click me" 
     onclick="myBtn_Click" OnClientClick="window.open('OtherPage.aspx', 'OtherPage');" />

Answer 2

If you'd like to use Code Behind, may I suggest the following solution for an asp:button -

ASPX Page

<asp:Button ID="btnRecover" runat="server" Text="Recover" OnClick="btnRecover_Click" />

Code Behind

    protected void btnRecover_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var recoveryId = Guid.Parse(lbRecovery.SelectedValue);
        var url = string.Format("{0}?RecoveryId={1}", @"../Recovery.aspx", vehicleId);

        // Response.Redirect(url); // Old way

        Response.Write("<script> window.open( '" + url + "','_blank' ); </script>");
        Response.End();
    }

Answer 3

Use an html button and javascript? in javascript, window.location is used to change the url location of the current window, while window.open will open a new one

<input type="button" onclick="window.open('newPage.aspx', 'newPage');" />

Edit: Ah, just found this: If the ID of your form tag is form1, set this attribute in your asp button

OnClientClick="form1.target ='_blank';"

Edited and fixed (thanks to Shredder)

If you mean you want to open a new tab, try the below:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.Form.Target = "_blank";
}

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

    Response.Redirect("Otherpage.aspx");
}

This will keep the original page to stay open and cause the redirects on the current page to affect the new tab only.

You should use:

{
    Response.Redirect("otherpage.aspx");
}
