Or a standard link...

<a href="https://www.mycomany.com">www.mycomany.com</a>

Hi,

If you need to do this with backend code then you can simply use-

Response.Redirect("~/")

This will redirect to the root of the website, ideally its homepage.

Hi aspfun,

This code you used:

reponse.redirect("www.mycomany.com");

Equivalent to:

reponse.redirect("www.mycomany.com",true);

It will call HttpResponse.End Method upon completion and throw a ThreadAbortException exception, which has an adverse effect on the performance of the web application.

Therefore, I recommend that instead of this overload you use the HttpResponse.Redirect(String, Boolean) overload and pass false for the endResponse parameter, and then call the CompleteRequest method.

For more details, you could refer to below link:

Hi mgebhard, 

Is it possible of using code behind form to do it?

<a href="https://www.mycomany.com">www.mycomany.com</a>

Hi,

If you don't want to do anything a link is enough (and saves an extra redirection). It's also a bit unclear if you want this link to point to your site root or to a 3rd party site.

Do you have some problem in doing what you want?

<a href="https://www.mycomany.com">www.mycomany.com</a>

The <a> tag is written in the aspx page and displayed in the browser.  If the user clicks the link the browser goes to the href URL. 

If you need to do redirect the browser from the code behind then use a Response.Redirect..  

Since this is such a basic concept, I assume there is a problem you are trying to solve.  Can you explain what you are trying to do or why you wonder if there is a better way?
