Export to PDF in a new window using web service render method

We have an order screen which we would like to be visible at all times, and a
report based off some of the information on that screen. Is there any way to
keep this window open and open the report in a new window? Right now the
button used to launch the report is a server control button. This is what I
use now to open in the same window:
'setup parameters here...
result = rs.Render(reportPath, format, historyID, devInfo, parameters,
credentials, showHideToggle, encoding, mimeType, reportHistoryParameters,
warnings, streamIDs)
sh.SessionId = rs.SessionHeaderValue.SessionId
With Response
.ClearContent()
.AppendHeader("content-length", result.Length.ToString())
.ContentType = "application/pdf"
.BinaryWrite(result)
.Flush()
.Close()
End With
I did some reading and tried using window.open but to no avail. Any
suggestions?Does this help?
For the following you need SP1 or greater installed.
= "javascript:void(window.open('http://www.google.com','_blank'))"

I've tried your solution, and it doesn't work for me. Maybe I'm
misunderstanding?
I've put the snippet of javascript on the OnClickevent of my asp.net
pushbutton, and I can't compile the project. Can you give me a fuller
sample?
Thx
