Never Show Window On Page Launch

I am using C# and asp.net to launch a webpage that I am passing parameters to. That works well! I come from a Windows.Forms background so please forgive me if I am trying to achieve the impossible. What I would like is set the Visibility property of the program (either IE or chrome) to false so the user never sees that a webpage is being launched. I have been using this JS function to close the page, but it seems that the page must completely load before closing which sometimes can take a few seconds.

Does asp.net have the capability to achieve such? And this is my JS code I have been using

string close = @"<script type = 'text/javascript'>
                    window.returnValue = true;
                    window.close();
                </script>";
base.Response.Write(close);

On the Project Properties page, Web tab, Start Action section, click the radio button for "Don't open a page. Wait for a request from an external application".

If you don't want the User to see the page, I assume you just want to post some information to the page. In that case, make an HTTP request via c# code, instead of opening the webpage up in a browser.
