Question

I have a gridview in which I have a column and opening a page through query string. The Column code is here:

 <asp:HyperLinkField DataNavigateUrlFields="LCNumber" Target="_blank"
                     DataNavigateUrlFormatString="LCDocs.aspx?LCNumber={0}"
                     Text="View" >
     <ItemStyle Font-Names="Tahoma" Font-Size="8pt" />
 </asp:HyperLinkField>

The problem is that I when click on view, it opens the new tab while I have to open a new window with custom height and width with custom position. What is the solution to do this?

Answer 1

You can use a <a> tag instead of <asp:hyperlink> and replace your hyperlink like below.

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Name" SortExpression="PartnerName">
    <ItemTemplate>
        <a onclick="window.open('LCDocs.aspx?LCNumber=<# Eval("LCNumber")','','width=200,height=100')" id="alink" runat="server" > </a>
    </ItemTemplate>
</asp:TemplateField>

If you want to change {0}, you can change it via code behind.
