I have an asp.net MVC2 application that needs to call a web service from the controller. How do I do this? It is a RESTful service that returns Json data.
I cant seem to find a good example.
Thanks

You call it the same way you would do in any ASP.net application, it is not connected to MVC at all.
Either add a reference and use that (easiest) or go with the manual method: here is a guide, see at towards the end (fig. 14 in particular) for consuming such services:
