JSON is a bad idea entirely in a sidebar gadget, in vista using silverlight... it just doens't seem practical so I'm going back to some nice old fashioned SOAP/XML. <BR/><BR/>more ranting on this topic at: <BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://hackingsilverlight.blogspot.com/2008/01/vista-sidebar-gadgets-silverlight-and.html" REL="nofollow">http://hackingsilverlight.blogspot.com/2008/01/vista-sidebar-gadgets-silverlight-and.html</A>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903732036325261650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887975141009593463.post-15332737308486021682008-01-02T13:56:00.000-08:002008-01-02T13:56:00.000-08:00mostly because this was for a Silverlight 64bit Vi...mostly because this was for a Silverlight 64bit Vista Sidebar gadget that can't use any AJAX and I didn't want to spend more then 5 minutes making it work... And only Silverlight 1.0 can be used for the project and no upgrades to the server... So I guess I should cavate this with the reason for not using ajax or something a bit more clean. The key thing was to make it work and complete the app given the circumstance as fast as possible. Hence the hacking :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00903732036325261650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-887975141009593463.post-74550913120209931152007-12-27T10:22:00.000-08:002007-12-27T10:22:00.000-08:00Hi David,Is there any special reason why you're no...Hi David,<BR/><BR/>Is there any special reason why you're not using the /js proxy to as standard ASMX page that comes with ASP.NET Ajax and that exposes automagically the output of your SOAP service as a JSON result?<BR/><A HREF="http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/07/10/CuttingEdge/default.aspx" REL="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/07/10/CuttingEdge/default.aspx</A><BR/><BR/>Are you also aware that a JSON serializer now comes with WCF3.5?<BR/><A HREF="http://dotnetslackers.com/articles/ajax/JSON-EnabledWCFServicesInASPNET35.aspx" REL="nofollow">http://dotnetslackers.com/articles/ajax/JSON-EnabledWCFServicesInASPNET35.aspx</A><BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>Christophe Lauer -- <A HREF="http://blogs.msdn.com/clauer/" REL="nofollow">http://blogs.msdn.com/clauer/</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
