Handle Link button In radgrid with ajax

[Howard]

I have a link button in my RadGrid. When I clicked the link button,it will pop out a new page. All is working fine without error. Here is my code:

ASP

<telerik:RadGrid ID="gvCustomer" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" AllowSorting="True"

        AutoGenerateColumns="False" CellSpacing="0" GridLines="None" Width="100%">

        <MasterTableView AllowMultiColumnSorting="True">

            <CommandItemSettings ExportToPdfText="Export to PDF" />

            <RowIndicatorColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter RowIndicator column" Visible="True">

            </RowIndicatorColumn>

            <ExpandCollapseColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter ExpandColumn column" Visible="True">

            </ExpandCollapseColumn>

            <Columns>

                <telerik:GridTemplateColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter TemplateColumn column" HeaderText="Customer Name"

                    SortExpression="CUSTOMERNAME" UniqueName="TemplateColumn">

                    <ItemTemplate>

                        <asp:LinkButton ID="lnkCustomerName" runat="server" CommandArgument='<%#Eval("CUSTOMERNAME") "," +Eval("IC")+ "," +Eval("ACCNO")%>' 
   CommandName="command" Font-Underline="True" Text='<%# Bind("CUSTOMERNAME") %>'>
 </asp:LinkButton>
                    </ItemTemplate>


                    <FooterStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />

                    <HeaderStyle Width="25%" />

                    <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" VerticalAlign="Top" />

                </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

            </Columns>

            <EditFormSettings>

                <EditColumn FilterControlAltText="Filter EditCommandColumn column">

                </EditColumn>

            </EditFormSettings>

            <PagerStyle AlwaysVisible="True" />

        </MasterTableView>

        <HeaderStyle HorizontalAlign="Center" />

        <PagerStyle AlwaysVisible="True" />

        <FilterMenu EnableImageSprites="False">

        </FilterMenu>

</telerik:RadGrid>

VB.NET

Protected Sub gvCustomer_ItemCommand(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As Telerik.Web.UI.GridCommandEventArgs) Handles gvCustomer.ItemCommand

       If e.CommandName = "command" Then
           Dim arg As String() = e.CommandArgument.ToString.Split(",")
           Dim strName As String = arg(1)
           Dim strIC As String = arg(2)
           Dim strAccountNo As String = arg(3)

           Dim str As String
           str = "<script language='javascript'>window.open(' " + "~/Customer.aspx?CustomerName=" & strName & "&OldIC=" & strIC & "&AccountNo=" & strAccountNo + " ');</script>"
           ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(Me.GetType(), "script", str)
       End If
   End Sub

But after I added the RadAjaxManager to handle the RadGrid. The link button is not working anymore. The new page does not pop out. But if I remove the ajax manager will work fine,the page is post back and new page is pop out. Below is the code I added:

ASP

<telerik:RadAjaxManager ID="RadAjaxManager1" runat="server" DefaultLoadingPanelID="RadAjaxLoadingPanel1">
        <AjaxSettings>
            <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="gvCustomer">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="gvCustomer" />
                </UpdatedControls>
            </telerik:AjaxSetting>
        </AjaxSettings>
</telerik:RadAjaxManager>

Please help me to find out the solution.Thank you very much!
