In ASP.NET, I have collected a list of selected items from a checkbox in an array at the client side. Now I need to pass the array from client to server's ASMX web method. How do I do this?

Is it an ASMX Web Service you're using on the backend? Are you using any JavaScript libraries?Greg B– Greg B2011-09-29 07:32:55 +00:00Commented Sep 29, 2011 at 7:32

what is the question? is it a trouble of converting a List to an Array (solution: List<T>.ToArray() ) or what?Emanuele Greco– Emanuele Greco2011-09-29 07:34:21 +00:00Commented Sep 29, 2011 at 7:34

Add a JSON library to your page, use json2.js here. That gives you a function to serialize javascript arrays into JSON strings.
You can then pass it into your webmethod:
[WebMethod]
public void MyWebMethod(List<string> someValues)
{
// Use someValues...
}
Here's the javascript you need
var arrayData = ["1","2","3"]; // Your array goes here
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "MyWebService.asmx/MyWebMethod",
data: JSON.stringify({ someValues: arrayData }),
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function()
{
// Your success function...
}
});
