Question

I have jquery using ajax/json to grab an elements ID and then hits:

[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]
public static string EditPage(string nodeID)
{
    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(Global.conString))
    using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("contentPageGetDetail", con))
    {
        cmd.Parameters.Add("@ID", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier).Value = Global.SafeSqlLiteral(nodeID, 1);
        cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
        cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        using (SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd))
        {
            da.Fill(dt);
        }
    }
    if (dt.Count > 0)
    {
      string pageTitle = dt.Rows[0]["Title"].toString();
      string contentID = dt.Rows[0]["ContentID"].toString();
      return pageTitle, contentID, nodeID;
    }
    else
    {
      return "Failed";
    }
}

When it’s time to return I want to grab all content returned from the stored procedure back to the jquery method in the success section and set a hiddenfield, dropdown value, and a title in a textfield.

In the jQuery I tried using “pageTitle” but it came up undefined. What do I need to do jQuery side to grab whats being returned and populate fields in my Web Form before showing the form?

If you want to use the string you return from jquery try:

success: function(msg) {
    alert(msg.d);
}

msg.d will hold the string you return from your webservice call. If you want to return multiple strings, try to add a predefined string between them and split them in your jquery success function. like:

 yourfirststring||@@||yoursecondstring||@@||yourthirdstring

 var strings = msg.d.split("||@@||");
