Redirect to action and open new page

in my view I have simple table with link to product:

<td>@Html.ActionLink("View details", "Open","Home",new { id = product.Id, url = product.Url })</td>

In my controller, I am doing some stuff with received data:

public ActionResult Open(int id, string url)
{
    productService.AddUserVisit(id);
    return RedirectToAction("Index");
}

And after all I am refreshing page. What I want to do is to open passed url in next page. How can I do that?

Can you just use 

return Redirect(url)

Or if you need to go to the Index page first for some reason, you could try 

return RedirectToAction("Index", new { url = url });

and obviously accept the url as a string on your index controller.

Hope that helps

I believe you want something similar to this question here: Redirect to external URI from ASP.NET MVC controller

Except you want to do this:

return Redirect(url);
