Question

I am calling the following C# method:

[WebMethod(true)]
public static List<ReadUserStructure> LoadFriends()
{        
    List<ReadUserStructure> returner = Friend.ReadAllFriends();        
    return returner;
}

With the following jQuery:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "Main.aspx/LoadFriends",
    data: "{}",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    dataType: "json",
    success: function (msg) { alert(msg.Count.toString()); }
});

I have a break point on the C# method and it hits it. stepping through the method the function works fine and, in my user, creates a list with a count of 2. But this list if not getting returned to the client. Any ideas?

Answer 1

The problem is the list won’t have a Count property in javascript. Instead, look for msg.length
