Open a PDF file using VB.NET in an UpdatePanel

After hours of trying n searching, i finally got it done by the following way:
Use a trigger for UpdatePanel on the button
Register your client side script in the button click even
Sample Code:

(ASCX)
<asp:UpdatePanel ID="UpdatePanel1" runat="server">
<triggers>
<asp:postbacktrigger controlid="btnSubmit" />
</triggers>
<ContentTemplate>
(ASCX.CS)
Dim strscriptMF As String
strscriptMF = "<script language=javascript>window.open('" & pdfPathMF & "')</script>"
Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(Me.GetType(), "strScriptMF", strscriptMF)

Method 'System.Object CompareObjectEqual(System.Object, System.Object, Boolean)' has no supported translation to SQL.

Make sure you are converting the objects used in the line as per required and also make sure that the object names are not repeating.
