Hi,

I am not sure how to ask this, as googling has got me nowhere.

I am creating a flash desktop application, that consumes a .NET webservice. In order to test the webservice, I have a simple .aspx file that uses an asp:ScriptManager to create the javascript required for AJAX calls to the webservice.

This was all fine when I set it up.

However, I have added methods to the webservice- if I attempt to call these methods via javascript, I get an error, saying the method name is undefined.

In fact, it is undefined because the javascript that is automatically produced, neither inline or using the /scriptresource.axd file has any reference to the new method ( or, for that matter, if I comment out an existing one, the reference to the method remains)

To try to get it to refresh, I have:

Cleared cache (repeatedly)
Restarted the browser
Tried in a different browser (!)
Rebuilt the website and the specific pages
Restarted VS Web Developer 2005 Express
Opened web.config and changed it slightly and re-saved (a lead from a google search)
Moved the webservice .asmx to the root of the site ( from the same search result)
Made a whole new page and added a new asp:ScriptManager to it

Now, this would not be an issue, but I do want an AJAX management system for the data that the desktop app will send and receive. and clearly there is either a bug or I am missing something obvious.

So.. any suggestions?

Have you tried right clicking the web reference in VS and selecting "Update Web Reference"?

Err.. so I am developing the site in this manner:

I have a folder named Services, in that is webservice.aspx (it is local)

I have a folder named Test, in that folder is the page that should connect to that webservice using the asp:ScriptManager as follows:

<asp:ScriptManager runat="server" ID="scriptmanagerPOES_17" >
     <Services>
        <asp:ServiceReference
                 path="~/Services/webservice.asmx"
                 InlineScript="true"
                />
      </Services>
</asp:ScriptManager>

oh, ive never hit webservices directly with the ajax library. My bad.
