Context: See original thread http://www.asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=1&PostID=294673 Question: I simplified original code to the bare minimum and still below Code 1 did not work as expected. I used .NET Framework 1.0.3705. Can you some of you conduct the test by just creating one aspx with either Code 1 or Code 2 and tell us what's happening here. 1. Code 1: *DID NOT* get to the page google. It get to http://www.asp.net.

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{
			try
			{
				Response.Redirect("http://www.google.com");
			}
			catch (Exception ex)
			{
				Response.Redirect("http://www.asp.net");
			}
		}

2. Code 2: get to the page google if we commented out //Response.Redirect("http://www.asp.net");

		private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
		{
			try
			{
				Response.Redirect("http://www.google.com");
			}
			catch (Exception ex)
			{
				//Response.Redirect("http://www.asp.net");
			}
		}
