Ajax - Pagemethod in javascript to invoke code behind method

I have been trying to get the client side ajax pagemethod working for the last 5-6 hours but with out any success in my custom module. I am not sure if am doing everything correctly. As far as I know I have gone through the steps given in many of these websites

http://www.singingeels.com/Articles/Using_Page_Methods_in_ASPNET_AJAX.aspx

http://encosia.com/2008/05/29/using-jquery-to-directly-call-aspnet-ajax-page-methods/

None of them have worked on my custom mojo control. Do I need to refer any javascript files in the custom control? Not sure how one could call a code behind method from a javascript especially that works on mojo custom module. Any sample code would be of great help.

Thanks

Nave

Re: Ajax - Pagemethod in javascript to invoke code behind method

There is a well known limitation with PageMethods that they must exist in the Page not the UserControl. Since the Module is a UserControl dynamically loaded into a page that does not have the method, you cannot use page method there. You would instead have to use a web service.

Hope it helps,
