I have been searching all over the place but am unable to get a definitive answer to which is the best way to execute code behind functions from javascript from a custom DNN module. I have looked over the ClientAPI documentation but this looks to be no longer up to date. Can anybody point me to up to date documentation or sample code?

I have had very good success using PageMethods and jQuery.   I have also called the post back methods from JavaScript.

Hi Aaron,

Can you clarify how you are using Pagemethods? As a DNN module is a webusercontrol it is not possible to use pagemethods in your control, as far as I know.
Regarding postback from javascript, this is exactly what I am trying to prevent. I am looking for the best way to create interaction between javascript and serverside code without doing full postbacks. So far I have found 2 ways of doing it using the dnn client API and 1 by using asmx webservices(where I use some of the IWeb module's classes for securing calls to the webservices)
