Calling ASMX Web Service from Javascript

Question

I want to call a webservice from javascript.

This is my code:

    var method=\"GetStock\";
    var url = \"http://www.mywebsite.ro/ServiceGetStock.as         


        

Answer 1

use dataType: "jsonp", instead of dataType: "json", jsonp is for cross domian webservice. hope it will help.

Answer 2

Ok guys. I found the problem. When an ASMX file is created, you must read all comments lines. To allow this Web Service to be called from script, using ASP.NET AJAX, uncomment the following line.

 //[System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]

So the GetStock function is:

  [WebMethod]
     [ScriptMethod(ResponseFormat = ResponseFormat.Json)]
    public string GetStock(string variant_id)
    {
        SendEmail.SendErrorMail("in"+ variant_id);

        try
        {

            ProductVariant variant = ProductVariantManager.GetProductVariantByID(Convert.ToInt32(variant_id));

            return variant.Stock.ToString();
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            return ex.Message;
        }
    }

and the Ajax code is:

   var url = "http://www.mywebsite.ro/ServiceGetStock.asmx";
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: url + "/GetStock",
        data: "{variant_id:'1'}",
        contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        dataType: "json",
        success: OnSuccessCall,
        error: OnErrorCall
    });

    function OnSuccessCall(response) {
        alert(response.d);
    }


    function OnErrorCall(response) {
        alert(response.status + " " + response.statusText);
    }

Problem solved! Thanks all for tips.......
