    Hi,

    When I tried to expand my nodes in my RadTreeView I get the following error: 'The server method 'LoadNodes' failed'

    I've placed a RadTreeView on a UserControl, in the Page_Init the UserControl is initialized.
    Control control = LoadControl("/Pages/Controls/MenuControl.ascx");
    control.ID = "menuControl";
    panelMenu.Controls.Add(control);

    Now the RadTreeView is defined as following:
    <telerik:RadTreeView ID="radTOC" runat="server" Width="250px" Visible="false" CssClass="RadTreeView_RadSkins"
        EnableEmbeddedSkins="False" ShowLineImages="false" Style="white-space: normal;">
        <WebServiceSettings Path="../../Services/TreeViewService.asmx" Method="LoadNodes" />
    </telerik:RadTreeView>

    The treenodes are added to the RadTreeView as following:
    foreach (Publication sub in subPublications)
    {
       RadTreeNode treeNode = new RadTreeNode(sub.Name, sub.PublicationID.ToString());
       treeNode.ExpandMode = TreeNodeExpandMode.WebService;
       radTOC.Nodes.Add(treeNode);
    }

    The webmethod in TreeViewService.asmx:
    [System.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService]
    public class TreeViewService : System.Web.Services.WebService
    {
        [WebMethod]
        public static RadTreeNodeData[] LoadNodes(RadTreeNodeData node, object context)
        {
            List<RadTreeNodeData> result = new List<RadTreeNodeData>();
            RadTreeNodeData nodeData = new RadTreeNodeData();
            nodeData.Text = "Loaded on demand";
            nodeData.ExpandMode = TreeNodeExpandMode.WebService;
            result.Add(nodeData);
            return result.ToArray();
        }
    }

    Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

    Regards,
    Wouter splinter

    Hi Wouter,

    Could you, please, try using a tilde-noted relative path - my guess would be "~/Services/TreeViewService.asmx".

    Hello Wouter,

    Could you please try to determine the exact error message from the server? You can do so using Fiddler or Firebug to inspect the response to the Web Service requests.

    Thank you.

    Hi Wouter,

    Please remove the "static" declaration from the RadTreeNodeData[]  web method:
