Redirect to another aspx page when message box button is click.

Question

Hi ,I am doing a message box that when user clicks on the Ok button, it will redirects to another aspx page. However, I do not know what is wrong with the code.
This is the code that I have input in:

 

protected void 
btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show("The Category Description has been repeated, 
please make the necessary changes! ", "Template", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.None);

if (MessageBoxButtons.OK == 
true)

{

Response.Redirect("ViewCategory.aspx");

}

}

Thanks:D

Hi; That won't work. 1st run the aspx in a browser. Then what's displaying in addressbar, use that full path in your window application

Hi, You should mention what error you are getting. Then also by reading your code I assumed you done below mistake Used Response.Redirect in a windows application. In windows application it may not support in normal way. Response.Redirect meant for Web generally So your code need to be corrected like below if ( MessageBox .Show( "The Category Description has been repeated, please make the necessary changes! " , "Template" , MessageBoxButtons .OK, MessageBoxIcon .None).Equals( DialogResult .OK)) { //If IE browser using System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( "iexplore" , "ViewCategory.aspx" ); //If firefox using System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( "firefox" , "ViewCategory.aspx" ); }

Do i need to add that on my default page and remove this to the current page. thanks in advance if ( MessageBox .Show( "The Category Description has been repeated, please make the necessary changes! " , "Template" , MessageBoxButtons .OK, MessageBoxIcon .None).Equals( DialogResult .OK)) { //If IE browser using System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( "iexplore" , "ViewCategory.aspx" ); //If firefox using System.Diagnostics. Process .Start( "firefox" , "ViewCategory.aspx" ); }

Hey dear, Dont use windows dll in web application, Take look at you application, when message box shows a new process starts, it wont work properly.. use this Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(typeof(string),"Showmessage", "javascript:alert("hi");document.location.hred="NewURI",true); Check this is correct answer if it helped,.
