Hi

I'm trying to use visual basic code:

dim myinstancepage = new myWebPage
myinstancepage.show()

I cant find myinstance.show()
what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Well, I think you are trying to follow the approach of desktop application here with the webpage, I am afraid it won't be possible. Please let us know exactly what do you wish to achieve, so that we can assist you in a better way.

^^Though the above is non-technical, but there is no harm thinking emotionally.

Have a base form. (or base Web Page)

click on a button in base form (or Web Page)

The second form (or Web Page), pops up. (the second web page is initialized in the button using a second web page class)

I hope this is clear as I'm using cross language expressions.

Please excuse.

O.o

I think you are making this more difficult then it needs to be or you are coming from a strictly Windows based dev environment.

In any event clicking the button isn't going to "Initialize" the second page, not in the manner you are thinking anyway. What is going to happen is, you are going to click a button and that that button is going to make an HTTP request to the webserver that will, in turn, initialize and serve the page.

So, in all reality, this is all you need on your "Base" webpage:

<a href="./secondPage.aspx">Open second page</a>

Further to parsons's point, you would also like to look at javascript methods like window.open() which would open a new page in a pop up window. (resembles to new form opening in desktop applications)
