ASP.Net Open New Tab in Browser from CodeBehind

I need to open a browser tab from a link that is given to me by an asp.net code behind.
Normally I would have a link and target="_blank", but the link that I need is dynamic, so I must have the behavior of a _blank link from code behind.

Any Ideas?

Method 1

If you have the data needed to create the link when generating the initial HTML, you can do something like this in the Page_Load event:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Button1.OnClientClick="javascript:window.open('MyPage.aspx?Param=" + Param1.ToString() + "');";         }
}

If you’re waiting for the PostBack to get the required data to build the link, you can send javascript down to the browser via the ScriptManager:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    //process whatever you need to to get Param1
    ScriptManager.RegisterStartupScript(Page, typeof(Page), "OpenWindow", "window.open('MyPage.aspx?Param=" + Param1.ToString() + "');",true);
}
