I'm trying to find out if its possible to call webservices from a browser
using c# or maybe some other script? I know the client would have to have
..net installed which is fine but I can't find any docs on whether its really
viable?

I want the asp.net pages to have an appearance of no visible postback.

thanks
 
Provided the client has XMLHttp, you can use it to create a SOAP call to a
web service. Outside of that, you can set up JavaScript to make an HTTP call.
With IE, you have some other "remote data" options.

You could also have a Windows control embedded in the IE window which
would make the calls to the web service...
 
hmm I have embedded a .net control into a browser before. Would the user
have to make any security changes to their browser
for it to work? if anyone knows :)

thanks

ilPostino,

Yes, just like any other control you embed, you will have to give it the
appropriate security rights. Also, if you want to connect to web services
other than one hosted where the control is loaded from, you will have to
grant extra rights for that as well.
