So, I'm trying to add a web service so I can make an AJAX call to a function that will do a data query for my website tables.

I have a .asmx and a .cs file that has the code i want to execute. However, I don't know how I'm supposed to appropriately add them to my DNN. Thought I could just drop them in the skin folder with the AJAX call, but that didn't work. Most of the tutorials I've come across have been lacking detailed instructions.

Hello,

As I think somebody mentioned in your other thread, you should just package it as a module.

When you compile the thing, that cs file will end up in the dll. In your module package, you add the dll and the asmx file normally - no different than if the asmx file was an ascx file for your module.

Then, you can access the webservice by browsing to it in your desktopmodules folder. So, it will end up like "http://example.com/DesktopModules/MyService/Service.asmx"

Mike

Would it really be http://example.com/etc. if the site isn't live or will I have to change that url up?

I compiled and then used Create New Module under host Extension. Since I'm using 6.1.2 the package creation is different than it was in 5. Anyway, I can't seem to locate the created package.

 Michael Washington has a module on his site called iWeb which is a really good place to start.

http://iweb.adefwebserver.com/ 

The module allows you to create a web service that has full access to the dnn api and current system states.  

There is also a great tutorial on how to extend it using an extension system to easily add you own methods.
