Answer / santosh
In response.redirect the page's state is not maintained.
while in server.transfer it is maintained.
In response.redirect the user makes request to browser to
transfer to another page and then the browser serves the
request.
While in server.transfer this roundtrip is not there the
user is directly transfered to another page.

Answer / ramesh
Server.Redirect:
response the page or return output without any request from
the client(Browser)
ex
Server.Redirect("Demo.aspx")
Disadvantage
it does not allow query String
Request.Redirect:
send the request(page) to server and processed it, finaly
redirect to corressponding page
Response.Redirect("Demo.aspx")
