I am totally new to web services and cannot get mine to work.
My setup is on VS 2008 using IIS. I have one solution file with 3 projects in it: website, code, and services.
If I put my webservice into my website and call it locally then it will work fine (it's just a hello world web service). I want to put the service into a different location for use from multiple sites.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong - i've read so much conflicting info regarding disco files, access files, silverlight, flash, java, etc.
I just looking for quick simple steps to create a web service that I can access from javascript and deploy to a seperate website. End goal is to have functionality in webservices so that website will call via JS and run much smoother in the loading time and async calls.
Do I need to create a disco file?
Do I need to configure security? -- I know this is prob best, i'm just looking to get it working at all.
Do I need to allow cross browser access on IIS or on my hosted server?
Are there any quick reference websites that you can recommend?
Should I be using WCF as new technology? - I saw this on MSDN but seems to be more for windows apps then web apps.
I'm not getting any specific error codes. I have installed the firefox debugging tools (firebug) and I can see what the headers are but I don't know how to interpret them and there is no response being passed back.
Any help is appreciated!!!
