You can avoid all <a href="http://www.certpaper.com/70-291.htm">70-291</a> the round about methods above, by using Server.Transfer("whateverPage.aspx"); in your OnClick event. You might (rare) have <a href="http://www.certpaper.com/70-431.htm">70-431</a> to look out for any objects you don't want transfered in your viewState and make alterations before the transfer, perhaps by storing and retrieving values from the <a href="http://www.certpaper.com/70-536.htm">70-536</a> Context.Items collection (or similar method) -
