Hi,
I am using Infragistics 2011 vol 2 JQUERY Grid. I need to bind the igGrid datasource to the datatable object available at server side .aspx.CS file.
Thanks.
Hello,
If you are using the exact code that you provided, then the url has an extra quotation mark that would cause the code to fail.
If your actual code doesn't have that extra quotation mark, it will be best if you start a new thread and provide more specific details about what isn't working as you expect or what you want explained as it isn't possible to know what might be happening from just the small amount of code.
i try this
$.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "">Default.aspx/YourPageMethod", data: "{}", contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8", dataType: "json", success: function(data) {
$("#grid").igGrid({ dataSource: data
}); } });
its not working for me ,can i get more explanation about that plz.
If you can write a blog post yourself, that'd b great :)However, I'm more interested in something more valuable - your viewpoint: you're the one feeling the need to utilize our igGrid with an old-shchool ASMX web service.So, what I would really like to get from you is a systematized list of your needs in this scenario. I'd envision something like a list:1. Need to use ASMX (ASP.NET) web service2. Need to keep default settings of the service: a. POST verb b. <something else>3. I need to reload/refresh the data in the grid every X secondsBasically, you will help us compose a usability review of sorts.

Wow, awesome response when I wasn't expecting ANY RESPONSE! :) :) :)
I could actually write up a blog for this if you think it would help the community, granted I'm not an infragistics evangilist nor do i know how to become one, but I've used the ASP/WPF and now the JQuery controls and every place I go to work I recommend them! :) Let me know if you are interested I could probably put something up in a relatively short time and since I anticipate continuously working w/Infragistics glad to add what I can but for now I'll try to continue to help and learn here.
KnockoutJS -- never even occurred to me. Very cool you guys are utilizing existing technology like JQueryUI and KnockJS rather than try to write your own proprietary stuff. I do know a little about KnockJS, but had not considered it, but will do so now.
Dave Ward's site, I actually used his site as a reference for several of these items. Love the site!
PS - very cool, look forward to getting the next release. We are actually a few versions behind right now, but with our WPF app we're looking at some of the new stuff that's around the corner.
PPS - Very interesting, I did not know this. Good read!
Thanks, triffle!I didn't catch the fact that the service method's output was a string and not a serialized JSON object.Yep, you're absolutely correct - a blog post is what's needed in order to elaborate this scenario, because working with Microsoft's web services (no matter ASP.NET or WCF) is a thankless chore and tiny modifications require more effort than one might expect. I'll ask our evangelism about composing something about this ...In the meanwhile, I can recommend Dave Ward's blog - it's very closely-related to such situations (Javascipt-powered client and an ASP.NET server-side).PS: A facilitation to the data refresh for any JavaSctipt control, I can recommend KnockoutJS - it requires some reading and understanding at first, but hopefully it will bring much-needed aid to situations where you need to refresh data from the server. We already have CTP (read: beta-like) support for it in our two grids. Our evangelism team have also composed a couple of articles about it.PPS: For example, do you know why all ASP.NET web methods (of an ASP.NET page or service) use the POST HTTP verb by default rather than GET? Our igGrid is REST-ful so it requests remote data with the GET verb, but the ASP.NET server-side won't comply - this is why you have to do this external call to $.ajax() instead of just calling dataBind() on the igGrid.
