fullCalendar events not showing even though correct JSON feed

Question

As a bunch of others I have a problem getting my JSON feed events to render in the calendar. The problem is often wrong JSON formating, but this is not the case since I\'ve vali

Try this , you have to have a webmethod in aspx file that fullcalendar can call asynchronously

       $(document).ready(function () {
        $('#fullcal').fullCalendar({
        eventClick: function() {
            alert('a day has been clicked!');
        }, 
            events: function (start, end, callback) {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",    //WebMethods will not allow GET
                url: "json.aspx/GetEvents",   //url of a webmethod - example below
                data: "{'userID':'" + $('#<%= hidUserID.ClientID %>').val() + "'}",  //this is what I use to pass who's calendar it is 
                //completely take out 'data:' line if you don't want to pass to webmethod - Important to also change webmethod to not accept any parameters 
                contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",  
                dataType: "json",
                success: function (doc) {
                    var events = [];   //javascript event object created here
                    var obj = $.parseJSON(doc.d);  //.net returns json wrapped in "d"
                    $(obj.event).each(function () { //yours is obj.calevent                          
                            events.push({
                            title: $(this).attr('title'),  //your calevent object has identical parameters 'title', 'start', ect, so this will work
                            start: $(this).attr('start'), // will be parsed into DateTime object    
                            end: $(this).attr('end'),
                            id: $(this).attr('id')
                        });
                    });                     
                    callback(events);
                }
            });
        }
       })

then this would be in json.aspx

[WebMethod(EnableSession = true)]
public static string GetEvents(string userID)
{
    DataClassesDataContext db = new DataClassesDataContext();
List eventList = db.calevents.ToList();

// Select events and return datetime as sortable XML Schema style.
var events = from ev in eventList
             select new
             {
                 id = ev.event_id,
                 title = ev.title,
                 info = ev.description,
                 start = ev.event_start.ToString("s"),
                 end = ev.event_end.ToString("s"),
                 user = ev.user_id
             };

// Serialize to JSON string.
JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();
String json = jss.Serialize(events);
return json;
}
