JQGrid - Cannot call ASP.NET WebMethod but can with Ajax

Question

I am new to jqGrid and I have found it difficult to follow the documentation jqGrid Documentation

I cannot figure out how to call a WebMethod when setting up the JQG

Answer 1

I also struggled a lot to get jqGrid working with WebMethod. Given below is what worked at the end.

ASPX

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="GridTest.aspx.cs" Inherits="SMFLWeb.GridTest" %>



    
    
    

    
    

    
    

    
    
    

    


    

        

            
            


        
    

Code Behind

namespace SMFLWeb
{
    public partial class GridTest : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

        }
        [System.Web.Services.WebMethod(BufferResponse = false)]
        public static List GetMyGames(string useMyFilter)
        {
            List games = new List();
            Game g1 = new Game();
            g1.GameID = 1;
            g1.GameName = "A";

            Game g2 = new Game();
            g2.GameID = 2;
            g2.GameName = "B";

            Game g3 = new Game();
            g3.GameID = 3;
            g3.GameName = "C";

            Game g4 = new Game();
            g4.GameID = 4;
            g4.GameName = "D";

            Game g5 = new Game();
            g5.GameID = 5;
            g5.GameName = "E";

            games.Add(g1);
            games.Add(g2);
            games.Add(g3);
            games.Add(g4);
            games.Add(g5);

            return games;
        }


    }
