ASP.NET WebService is Wrapping my JSON response with XML tags

Question

I\'m not sure where I\'m going wrong of what I\'m missing.

I\'m building an ASP.NET 2.0 (on the .Net 3.5 framework) Web application and I am including a webservice.

In your code, don't "return" the json. Use instead:

Context.Response.Write(ser.Serialize(jsonData));

Then you'll be good.

The regular return command helps you by putting in a more proper service format. Some would say it'd be better form to use this, and unwrap your json on the client from this format. I say, just spit down the stuff exactly how you want to use it!
