I have created a web service in .net which will retrieve the city name based on the given input text. The web service is working properly. I have used that web service in an AutoCompleteExtender Control in ajax control toolkit. But i am not getting the list of suggestions if i type anything in the textbox.

The web service structure is:

C#

public string GetCompletionList(string prefixText)

The HTML file is:

ASP.NET

<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
.........................................
.........................................
.........................................
<asp:TextBox ID="txtsearchcity" runat="server" class="autosuggest"></asp:TextBox>
<asp:AutoCompleteExtender runat="server" 
        ID="autoComplete1" 
        TargetControlID="txtsearchcity" 
        ServicePath="http://localhost:3935/SearchCity/searchcity.asmx" 
        ServiceMethod="GetCompletionList"
        MinimumPrefixLength="2"
        CompletionInterval="1000" 
        EnableCaching="true" 
        CompletionSetCount="20">
</asp:AutoCompleteExtender>
.........................................
.........................................
.........................................
</div>
</form>
</body>

What should be the exact ServicePath and ServiceMethod???
Whether the css file is necessary to get the output???

Anybody Please help out...
Thanks in advance
