Hello friends.
I am going to share with you a concept to call server side method from client side using script manager.
Step 1 : Put ScriptManager on .ASPX page.
Step 2 : Set EnablePageMethods="True" in ScriptManager.
Step 3 : Create one static method in server side that return some value.
Step 4 : Set WebMethod attribute to above the method.
Step 5 : Create one javascript function and call server side method using PageMethods object and set callback method as argument.
Step 6 : Create callback method where you will be able to retrieve return parameter from server side method.
See following example code
ScriptManager on the page.
<asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" EnablePageMethods="true" runat="server">
</asp:ScriptManager>
My server side static method
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static int Sum(int value1, int value2)
{
return value1 + value2;
}
My javascript function to call server side method and retrieve result from server side
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
pageMethodConcept={
callServerSideMethod:function(){
PageMethods.Sum(3,4,pageMethodConcept.callback);
// I am passing 3 and 4 to get sum and set callback method
},
callback:function(result){
alert(result);
}
}
window.onload=pageMethodConcept.callServerSideMethod;
</script>
Happy ending. :)
The ASP.NET Wiki was started by Scott Hanselman in February of 2008. The idea is that folks spend a lot of time trolling the blogs, googlinglive-searching for answers to common "How To" questions. There's piles of fantastic community-created and MSFT-created content out there, but if it's not found by a search engine and the right combination of keywords, it's often lost.
The ASP.NET Wiki articles moved to CodeProject in October 2013 and will live on, loved, protected and updated by the community.
