Question

I’m calling the Page Method and it’s returning all of the HTML in this page and not the value of 1 or 0.
I don’t know why this is. Can someone point me in the right direction ?

JavaScript:

$.ajax({
    async: false,
    type: "POST",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    data: '{}',
    url: "main.aspx/IsInfoComplete",
    success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
        console.log(textStatus);
        console.log(data.d);
            // act on return value:
            if(data==0) {
              // todo - 
            } else if (data==1) {
              // todo - 
            }
        }
    },
    error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
        console.log(textStatus);
    }
});

Server:

[System.Web.Services.WebMethod()]

public int IsInfoComplete()
{
    int returnValue = 0;

using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString))
{
    SqlCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
    cmd.CommandText = "GetIsUserInfoComplete";
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@UserName", userName);
    conn.Open();
    try
    {
        returnValue = (int)cmd.ExecuteScalar();
    }
    catch (Exception) { /* todo - */ }
}
return returnValue;
}

One thing you might try is to write your success function like this,

success: function (result) {
                if (result!="False") {
                    //it worked
                }
                else {
                   //it failed                 
                }
            },

And change your server side method to return a bool. This would probably get you the desired results. I had to do this in something I wrote and it worked just fine. Little silly that you have to check for “False” but it worked.

Note: Case matters when looking for the word “False”
