I am using a custom event in third party library for my asp.net project. When the event happens, I need to redirect to another page. Problem is that since it is custom event, Server.Transfer or Response.Redirect can't be used (I tried but got "response is not available in this context"). So I think best way would be to trigger post back in the event and redirect in page_load event on appropriate conditions. Is this right approach or is there any better idea? And, how can I trigger postback?
I want to redirect to "~/City/Göteborg", but if I just write Response.Redirect("~/City/Göteborg"); I will end up with an ugly URL in the address-bar like this: http://www.mysite.com/City/G%c3%b6teborg..
So my question is how to redirect to obtain a clean url like http://www.mysite.com/City/Göteborg?

Is it necessary to call Response.End() after Response.Redirect(url) Update for all the answers. Because some answers say that it's necessary and others say no, I have searched more and have found in msdn under remarks the following: Redirect calls End which raises a ThreadAbortException exception upon completion.
I am working on a website that I inherited (ASP.NET and C#), and I noticed that in almost EVERY method in the code behind of the project pages (except some helper methods), the original author uses Response.Redirect() to redirect to a page (typically home.aspx, but not always).
What is the purpose of doing this? It seems unneeded to me - at least it doesn't appear to change anything the website is doing if I keep it in or remove it.
I have a flash image slider with a button below each image. When i press that button, the user is redirected to a new page where i add that image product to my cart. The problem is that after doing the adding, i want to redirect the user back to the initial page.
note that in Firefox is working fine but in IE or Chrome it is DOWNLOADING the swf...If i comment Response.Redict(...) the user remains on this page so the click button is working well, only the redirect seems to be the problem.
Edit: The problem seems to be that Request.UrlReferrer keeps as link not the initial page containing the swf but the swf itself.
So, instead of doing redirect to:[URL] if does redirect to the swf contained on the Index.aspx page[URL]
Solved: with a session variable where i keep the initial page's url
I recently upgraded a web app to ASP.NET 4.0 , but I have to downgrade it back to 2.0, because the Response.Redirect from another web app, which is in ASP.NET 2.0, did not work.
I'm looking at creating a simple URL shortening service for our corporate intranet, and I'm curious if anyone knows if there's a maximum length for URLs returned by ASP.NET's Response.Redirect method?
I am working with ASP.net MVC 2 framework, for multiple sites. We have a base site and then sub sites that inherit from a "Core" site that contains 90% of the functionality that the sub sites will use.
In one of the controllers, I am saving some data, adding a UI message to the tempData and then using Response.Redirect.
The redirect works, but the tempdata is empty after the redirect.
I have tried returning "RedirectToAction" and "RedirectToRoute" with the same routing location and while it populates the TempData, the redirect doesn't happen lol..
So I guess in short, is there a way to get tempdata working when using a standard Response.Redirect?
Is it possible to pass on variables in response.redirect in a query string kind of way (without using form and submit).
If yes, what is the format?
I want to pass some variable (from a text box) from a classic asp page to .aspx page and this is what I am trying to do (I could not use session variables since classic asp and .NET asp share different sessions)-
I've just finished reading URL vs. URI vs. URN, in More Concise Terms, and it's really helped understand the distinction between the three terms. Since then I've skimmed the RFC2141 and RFC2616 specs and Microsoft's Response.Redirect Method documentation in an effort to answer the following question confidently.
Given this line of code:
Response.Redirect("~/Foo.aspx");
And this resulting HTTP response (trimmed for context):
I have a program which listerns to a specific directory and do some stuff once file is created on that directory. The thing is this works perfectly fine when I run it manually for testing. Meaning that when I copy and paste files in to that directory it work just fine.
Then I test it against our business system and had this problem. When our business system generates a file in that directory event fires 2-3 times and this leads to lof of problems.
What this code does at the end is Redirects to a direct download, and THEN afterwards, to a "tutorial page" on how to use the download. I can't seem to use these back to back. I've even used Response.Redirect(tutorialURL, false) so it wouldn't terminate processing, but it didn't work. It just STOPPED page processing. I've tried to use the Sleep() method of the Threading namespace, no luck. I'm sure there's an easy way to do this, I just don't know what it is.
I'm trying to get the previous page URL after I do a response write and i've looked around the web and people are using HTTP_REFERER but that doesn't work with Response.Redirect so is there anyway to get the URL of the previous page?
I have this code on a few pages and i need to know which page it is coming from when it gets to the servererror/default.aspx page
Response.Redirect("servererror/default.aspx?404")
And on my servererror/default.aspx page i'm just trying to grab the previous page URL and put it into the Session Session("ErrorPage")
For some reason, the response.redirect seems to be failing and it is maxing out the cpu on my server and just doesn't do anything. The .net code uploads the file fine, but does not redirect to the asp page to do the processing. I know this is absolute rubbish why would you have .net code redirecting to classic asp, it is a legacy app. I have tried putting false or true etc. at the end of the redirect as I have read other people have had issues with this. it runs locally on my machine but won't run on my server! I am getting the following error when I debugged remotely.
