Access Web Services from Flakes

Any flakes hosted on the Pageflakes server can access typed web services provided by ASP.NET Ajax. This code example shows a script tag in JavaScript that makes a web service available:

<script language="JavaScript" src="SimpleService.asmx/js">

This example generates a JavaScript proxy to a web service developed in ASP.NET 2.0. Now web-services can be called anytime directly from JavaScript.

requestSimpleService = SimpleService.EchoString (
  "SomeText", //params
  OnComplete, //On Complete callback
  OnError //OnError callback
);

If a particular service accepts more than one parameter, the call should be performed as follows:

requestSimpleService = SimpleService.EchoString (
  "SomeText",     //params
  "another param",
  "another param",
  OnComplete,    //On Complete callback
  OnError        //OnError callback
);
