I have a web form that has a cancel button on it. What I am trying to do is to click cancel to get redirected back to the Login page but it is not working. When the user clicks on Cancel the validations fire. Therefor stopping the redirect. How can I fix this?

C#

protected void Cancel_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    
    {
        Response.Redirect("Login.aspx");
    }
    }

Add this to your Redirect URL:

~/Login.aspx

and also set the CausesValidation Property to false on the cancel button.

Fair enough, but what if I was vicariously "knighting" you?

Maciej Los 10-Apr-14 16:54pm

OK, but on one condition: vicariously only ;)
