How would one create a popup window in asp.net


Question

As the title says really. I'm wanting to display another page in an external window using asp.net (VB language)

I can easily get pages to open in the same window using this command:

<asp:Button ID="Button23" runat="server" onclick="Button23_Click" Text="Info" PostBackUrl="~/Project/wifi.aspx" />

The problem is that i am currently on a page where data will be submitted. Every time i leave the page and then go back, the data needs to be resent. So i wanted to make the "wifi.aspx" appear in a popup window.

I've tried searching google. And all i can find is solutions for asp.net using C#, or have it so data can be carried to the popup, and back again Which i dont need).

Cheers.

So really you just need a window to open, via JavaScript... from what I understand, ASP.NET is irrelevant in what you're trying to achieve, as you specifically DON'T want any server-side involvement.

So just use:

<a href="#" onclick="window.open('wifi.aspxreturn false;">Info</a>

Or as a button:

<input type="button" name="infoButton" value="Info" onclick="window.open('wifi.aspx />

    • OpenAI exposes secret propaganda campaigns tied to multiple countries by David Uzondu Back in February, OpenAI shut down accounts that were busy developing Chinese surveillance tools aimed at the West. These tools were designed to snoop on social media, look for anti-China sentiment and protests, and report back to Chinese authorities. Now, OpenAI has announced it has disrupted even more shady operations, and not just those tied to China. In a report released Thursday, the company detailed how it recently dismantled ten different operations that were misusing its artificial intelligence tools. One of the China-linked groups, which OpenAI called "Sneer Review," used ChatGPT to churn out short comments for sites like TikTok, X, and Facebook. The topics varied, from U.S. politics to criticism of a Taiwanese game, where players work against the Chinese Communist Party. This operation even generated posts and then replied to its own posts to fake real discussions. What is particularly interesting is that the group also used ChatGPT to write internal performance reviews, describing how well they were running their influence campaign. Another operation with ties to China involved individuals posing as journalists and geopolitical analysts. They used ChatGPT to write social media posts and biographies for their fake accounts on X, translate messages from Chinese to English, and analyze data. OpenAI mentioned that this group even analyzed correspondence addressed to a U.S. Senator. On top of that, these actors used OpenAI's models to create marketing materials, basically advertising their services for running fake social media campaigns and recruiting intelligence sources. OpenAI also disrupted operations, probably originating in Russia and Iran. There was also a spam operation from a marketing company in the Philippines, a recruitment scam linked to Cambodia, and a deceptive job campaign that looked like something North Korea might orchestrate. Ben Nimmo, from OpenAI's intelligence team, noted the wide range of tactics and platforms these groups are using. However, he also said these operations were mostly caught early and did not manage to fool large numbers of real people. According to Nimmo, "We didn't generally see these operations getting more engagement because of their use of AI. For these operations, better tools don't necessarily mean better outcomes."
    • Long ago, I was in a networking class on a lab computer. The guy next to sarcastically told me to SHIFT+DELETE the C:\Windows folder. I said that I was sure Windows wouldn't allow such a thing (Windows 2000), and would either totally block the action or give some kind of dire warning. I was so confident that I tried it...not only was I wrong, but it didn't even give the standard "are you sure" warning, just went to town. I pressed cancel as quick as I could, but it was too late, shortly after, the system blue-screened and never booted again. I had to stay late and reinstall Windows for the teacher, but that ended up being a good thing, had great repour with him for the rest of the year, even got to help him get Active Directory setup in his lab.
    • My best decision: SHIFT+DELETE WINDOWS Then Installed Fedora Linux. Now I am a Happy Person
    • I value a game as a whole including graphics. But going backwards in terms of graphics with a game I'm not already invested in (as in something I played and loved in the past and still do) is off-putting. Its a very poor demo trailer if they didn't crank the settings to max that would be ridiculous. Different strokes for different folks i guess, i'm not into slop the trailer and likely game could have been far better, it doesn't it instead looks like it was made on a shoe string budget or with lack of experience. But that could also be down to trying to get it running on low budget/outdated hardware and sacrificing the top end.
