Examples

The following example uses the IsClientConnected property to check whether the client that is requesting the page remains connected to the server. If IsClientConnected is true, the code calls the Redirect method, and the client will view another page. If IsClientConnected is false, then the code calls the End method and all page processing is terminated.
