This a follow up to my previous post, Using ASP.Net to open a new browser window - Part I. There I used a static helper class to register a javascript function to open a new browser window. I've scratched the static class and replaced it with a BrowserWindow class and a PopUpWindow WebControl. BrowserWindow simply encapsulates all of the parameters passed to RegisterOpenWindowScript(), and PopUpWindow registers the javascript function and the call to the function.

Here's an example:

<cc1:PopUpWindow ID="PopUpWindow1" runat="server" OpenOnLoad="false" />
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Open Window" OnClick="Button1_Click" />

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
BrowserWindow window = new BrowserWindow(
"http://john.rummell.info/blog", 800, 600);
window.Resizable = true;
window.Scrollbars = true;
PopUpWindow1.BrowserWindow = window;
}
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
PopUpWindow1.OpenWindow();
}

PopUpWindow exposes a few of BrowserWindow's properties: Width, Height, and Url. For more options, create a BrowserWindow object and set PopUpWindow's BroswerWindow property with it, as shown in Page_Load. You can use the OpenWindow() method of PopUpWindow to open the window as shown in Button1_Click, or you can set OpenOnLoad to true to have it open when the page loads.
