Refer ASMX service under Client Side DataBinding

[Jaish]

I have an ASMX service inside same scope of my UI layer and using below lines to refer it and pull data for client side binding. No errors and no data too. What's wrong?

<telerik:RadGrid ID="SourceGrid" runat="server" ShowGroupPanel="false" AllowSorting="false" ShowFooter="true" AllowPaging="false" HeaderStyle-CssClass="tableHeading br" AutoGenerateColumns="false" GridLines="Both" EnableViewState="false">
<ClientSettings>
<DataBinding Location="Employee.asmx" SelectMethod="GetEmployees" >


[WebMethod]
public static List<Employee> GetEmployees()
{
List<Employee> employeeList = new List<Employee>();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{

employeeList.Add(new Employee { EmpNumber = i, Name = "John" + i, Age = 30, Designation = "Clerk" + i, Salary = 2000 });
//    employeeList = new List<Employee> { 

//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1000, Name="John", Age=30, Designation="Clerk", Salary=2000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1001, Name="Mary", Age=35, Designation="Programmer", Salary=4000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1002, Name="Joe", Age=40, Designation="Manager", Salary=6000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1003, Name="Mike", Age=45, Designation="Head", Salary=9000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1004, Name="Leena", Age=28, Designation="DBA", Salary=3000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1005, Name="Mark", Age=30, Designation="Tester", Salary=3000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1006, Name="Hany", Age=31, Designation="Programmer", Salary=4000},
//new Employee{ EmpNumber=1007, Name="Tiaa", Age=45, Designation="Manager", Salary=6000},
//};
}


return employeeList;
}

Hello Jaish,

Based on the provided description it would be hard to pinpoint why the data is not displayed.

Nevertheless, make sure that the ScriptService attribute is applied to the Web Service class. For convenience I have prepared a sample Web Site Project where the functionality is implemented. Try to use similar approach and you should be able to implement the behavior you are looking for.
