Error when using jquery webservice call to populate dropdownlist
- by bugz
For some reason when i tested parsing a json string to a dropdownlist it worked doing this
var json = [{ "Id": "12345", "WorkUnitId": "SR0001954", "Description": "Test Service Request From Serena", "WorkUnitCategory": "ServiceRequest" }, { "Id": "12355", "WorkUnitId": "WOR001854", "Description": "Test Work Order From Serena", "WorkUnitCategory": "ServiceRequest" }, { "Id": "12365", "WorkUnitId": "DBR001274", "Description": "Test Database Related Service Request From Serena", "WorkUnitCategory": "ServiceRequest"}];
$(json).each(function() { comboboxWorkUnit.append($('<option>').val(this.Id).text(this.WorkUnitId)); });
However when i tryed taking the json from my webservice and placing it into the dropdownlist i get an error saying the dropdownlist doesnt support this metod.
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "Services/WorkUnitService.asmx/WorkUnit",
data: "{'Number' : '" + Number.text() + "','Id': '" + combobox.val() + "','workerType': '" + EmployeeType + "'}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function(json) {
$(json).each(function() { comboboxWorkUnit.append($('<option>').val(this.Id).text(this.WorkUnitId)); });
} });
I also tried which called the webservice method but through an error
$.postJSON("Services/WorkUnitService.asmx/WorkUnitsForParAndPhase", "{'parNumber' : '" + parNumber + "','phaseId': '" + combobox.val() + "','workerType': '" + EmployeeType + "'}", function(data) {
alert(data.toString());
});
And i tryed this which never called the webservice
$.getJSON('Services/WorkUnitService.asmx/WorkUnitsForParAndPhase' + parNumber + '/' + combobox.val() + '/' + EmployeeType,
function(myData) {
alert(myData.toString());
});
