Call web service in Javascript

I used to use Atlas for calling web service in Javascirpt and everything works fine. After I upgrade to Ajax beta1 it stopped working. The error message is the web service class is undefined. I have updated web.config file manually. I also tested this by creating a new ajax toolkit web site. The following is the code. It give me the same error? Anyone can help? I also get a error message for one page I had never met before with Atlas. The error message is error:Sys.ArgumentException: Value must not be null for controls and Behaviors. parameter name:element.

Thanks.

Hi there, I think you forgot to append [Microsoft.Web.Script.Services.ScriptService] attribute in your webservice class. For example of simple webservice call, see myblog post orajax.asp.net docs.

Got it. Thanks for your advice. It is not mentioned in the migration manual. I also find you can not use AJAX controls on hidden field, at least it is true for AutoComplete. This caused the problem I mentioned in the first post. Hope this will help someone.
