AJAX :: Toolkit:AutoCompleteExtender Return From Webmethod ?
May 7, 2010
i have used AjaxToolkit:AutoCompleteExtender, which calls a web method to get string array. Everything was working fine as its populating all the data.But the issue arise when web method is returning value in a string array like
arr[0]=1-12-100
arr[1]=1-10-100
the value im getting in the AutoCompleteExtender is the subtract of the result like
arr[0]=-111
arr[1]=-109
Why is it treating it like numeric and doing calculation when the return type is actual an string. i think its has to do sth with serialize and deserialize thing
I tried your code for Autocomplete without Webservice and didn't work on my page. When I tried it on a new project it works fine but on my project it does not. I have other controls on the page but that shouldn't stop it from working right?
I am developing a user control. This user control is having 2 Dropdown controls and one textbox('txtCustomer'). I am using autocompleteextender for the text box. This 'txtCustomer' control populates the data based on the value selected in 2 dropdowns.
I need to pass the selected value of this 2 dropdown to my meb method. I am not using web service(.asmx page) for this application instead i am using page level web method. I tried to access the controls from the web method inside the Page. but all the identifiers and controls of the page returning null in the web mothod. I have analysed it is because the events "page_Load and page_Init" are not getting fired.
I have some problem with the AutoCompleteExtender when it's include in an UpdatePanel.
Scenario:
I have create a UserControl with TextBox, AutoCompleteExtender and a "Save" LinkButton and I put this Control in the InsertItemTemplate of a ListView.
The AutoComplete uses a Method that I have created in a webservice.
All works fine untill i place my ListView in an UpdatePanel.
The webmethod don't fired. The strange thing is that if i put the same Control also out of my ListView it seems to work, but i can't catch the linkbutton click.
I have a web Method in my C# that is called via Jquery ajax method. The web method should return an object back to the Jquery which will be used to populate. I have tried returning a JsonResult object, the actual object and nothing seems to work! I'm not using MVC (Unfortunately). Is there a way that I can return an object from my web method which can be used by my AJAX method? here is the link for my JQuery AJAX method [URL]
I have an Ajax function called from JQuery that goes to a webservice to return a value. I need a SIMPLE example on how I can do this. I've been going nuts with serializing and every other aspect of this topic. I need to return either an ArrayList with ONE string field or a DataTable of some kind. Either way, I'm populating it into a DropDownList. I'm willing to consider alternatives to this idea. (Background info - I get a value from a textbox and I need to run it through a DB to get an associated value or set of values). I'm being really general so that someone can show a simple example.
I have the following web method , no success on return a correct Json format.
[Code]....
GetAll() return list of type "Company" POCO classes.
The web method complaint type "Company" could not cast to object. However I could not just return the Company type because client side Json only accept its 2 properties -"CompanyName", "ID" and I want to keep it that way.
Of cause, I had tried create a CompanyDTO which only have those two properties, but same error - "Unable to cast object of type..."
How should I modify in my web method to make it able to return a list of partial "Company" type in Json format?
Can my WebMethod return an XmlDocument as return type?
When I try to consume the web service I'm still not getting XML. It appears as though a reference to the method is being returned rather than say a string containing XML.
<WebMethod()> _ Public Function CustomerSearch(ByVal lastName As String, ByVal firstName As String, ByVal companyName As String, ByVal city As String, ByVal state As String, ByVal email As String) As XmlDocument ' Create XML doc Dim doc As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument() ' some more code Return doc End Function
I have a service that works great on my development box. It uses JQuery to hit my web service, and then the JSON results are sent back.
The web service is located on our basePage.cs. We didn't want to put out an external WebService for this. Our on beta box something different is happening.
The web page seems to be trying to call the web method correctly - the JSON data is being sent... but the server doesn't seem to know it's a webmethod. here's my service function (it's in our basepage.cs which inherits from Page).
How to return values from Webmethod to the client in JSON format? There are two static int values that i want to return.Do I need to create new object with those 2 properties and return it?The GetStatus() method is called frequently and i don't like the idea of creating a special object each time just for json formatting...
[WebMethod] public static int GetStatus() { int statusProcess,statusProcessTotal; Status.Lock.EnterReadLock(); statusProcess=Status.Process; //Static field statusProcessTotal=Status.ProcessTotal; //Static field Status.Lock.ExitReadLock(); return ... } On client side I catch the return value in : function OnSucceeded(result, userContext, methodName) (PageMethods.GetStatus(OnSucceeded, OnFailed);)
In my asp.net website I need to return data obtained from DB by adding html tags to it from a server side method,just like a webmethod returns jsonified data. I am having trouble understanding if a webmethod can serve the purpose(i.e., htmlifying the data).If not how do I acheive it?
The MyWebMethod returns an integer, and I want to set $(this).attr("id") of the jQuery object above to the returned integer. Basically, I'm trying to do the equivalent of an MVC Ajax.ActionLink...AjaxOptions {UpdateTargetID =...} However, I can't figure out how to get both a reference to $(this) as well as the returned value. For example, if I do:
I can succesfully manipulate the jQuery object, but obviously it doesn't have the return value from the MyWebMethod. Alternatively, the first code block with a method signature of onSuccessFunction(returnValue) has the correct return value from MyWebMethod, but no concept of the jQuery object I'm looking for. Am I going about this all wrong?
I am trying to retrieve asp.net C# List method in JavaScript by referring Send-and-receive-JavaScript-Array-to-Web-Service-Web-Method-using-ASP.Net-AJAX ..My Code as below
Javascript
<script type = "text/javascript"> function GetAllSVGData() { PageMethods.GetSvgElements(OnSuccessSVGElements); } function OnSuccessSVGElements(response) {
[code]....
My problem is JavaScript function OnSuccessSVGElements is not firing. When I put breakpoints in it is working fine in C#. C# Method Working But Alerts in javascript not working.
XP Pro,aspnet 2, IIS, Oracle I have a primary webpage that displays a tab and some summary data. The tab uses an iframe and the summary data is loaded by an async WebMethod call back to C#. The iframe page takes a short while to load depending on how much data is in there (sometimes upto 20 seconds?). The WebMethod call, or at least the content of it, is very fast. BUT, the WebMethod call won't return until basically the iframe has finished loading.
I've verified through Fiddler that the browser is initiating both requests at basically the same time. It's initiating the iframe call first followed immediately by the WebMethod call within the same second. My understanding is that browsers are limited to only two calls at once.
If I set a breakpoint at the end of my WebMethod call (even commenting out ALL it's guts so it just returns an empty string), that breakpoint won't fire until the aspnet page serving up the iframe has finished. Using threads window, I see both calls at the server. I just don't understand why the server won't actually run the Webmethod call until the first call has finished. I've searched the code looking Monitor.Enter, lock, etc to make sure nobody has inserted any other type of blocking code and I can't find anything. I've basically emptied out the WebMethod call and it just returns a string, but no matter what I do, it just won't return as fast as it can. If I comment out the iframe, then the WebMethod call returns within 2 seconds. With the iframe, it "looks" like the the webmethod call won't return until the iframe has finished.
1) Does aspnet only process one request per aspnet session id? Is it FIFO? I figured the webserver would just process requests and return each request as fast as it can.
2) What else can I do to get that summary data to return faster (but not actually loading and putting the data into the very first primary page) ?
I am Getting the following error using the Numeric UpDown Control from Ajax Control Toolkit. Assembly 'AjaxControlToolkit, Version=3.0.30512.20315, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e' contains a Web resource with name 'AjaxControlToolkit.NumericUpDown.NumericUpDownBehavior.debug.js', but does not contain an embedded resource with name 'AjaxControlToolkit.NumericUpDown.NumericUpDownBehavior.debug.js'.
In the tutorial for autocomplete text box for static page method in c# the following lines of code is given. When i use it my website using c# it gives error 'invalid term "in" showing in line 7.
[System.Web.Services.WebMethodAttribute(), System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptMethodAttribute()] public static string[] GetCompletionList(string prefixText, int count, string contextKey) { // Create array of movies string[] movies = {"Star Wars", "Star Trek", "Superman", "Memento", "Shrek", "Shrek II"}; // Return matching movies return (from m in movies where m.StartsWith(prefixText,StringComparison.CurrentCultureIgnoreCase) select m).Take(count).ToArray(); }
I am using autocompleteextender to receive list of projects. Is there any way that, given list of projects can hold a hidden values like a dropdownlist? I need project ID as hidden value...so that when I select a project from the list, I can retrieve the ID using C#/ASP.Net.
i'm using visual web developer 2008 express edition, i added the ajax toolkit to the tools without issue. SOME tools, like the accordian (and others) allow me to drag and drop them onto my forms. but others, such as the autocompleteextender wil not allow me to drag and drop them onto a form. i just get a circle with a line through it (as if to say - this is not allowed) - why is that?
i tried coding the extender in manually like many examples i've seen online:
