Both Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer methods are used to transfer a user from one web page to another web page. Both methods are used for the same purpose but still there are some differences as follows. The Response.Redirect method redirects a request to a new URL and specifies the new URL while the Server.Transfer method for the current request, terminates execution of the current page and starts execution of a new page using the specified URL path of the page. Both Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer has same syntax like:
Response.Redirect("UserDetail.aspx");
Server.Transfer("UserDetail.aspx");
Before touching on more points I want to explain some https status codes, these are important for the understanding of the basic differences between these two. The https status codes are the codes that the Web server uses to communicate with the Web browser or user agent.
