hi I have page a child.aspx. It acts like a popup window. I call it from another page parent.aspx, while clicking on a button of parent.aspx page. It is handled in OnClientClick() of the button using JS

JavaScript

window.showModalDialog('child.aspx', '', 'dialogWidth:355px;dialogHeight:250px');

i want to prevent accessing the page from any other means such as typing the child.aspx's url in browser window.

Can anyone give me some hint to do this?

AFAIK, this setting depends on the browser and cannot be controlled through code.

Solution 3

you can do that by using the Page.IsCrossPagePostBack property like shown below

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!Page.sIsCrossPagePostBack)
{
Response.Redirect("url");
}
}
