Calling non-static method from static webmethod
-
[System.Web.Services.WebMethod] public static DataSet GetContactName() { DataSet ds = new DataSet(); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); ds.ReadXml(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("App_Data/Group.xml")); LoadData(ds); ????? } I need to bind this ds to a repeater control. public void LoadData(DataSet ds) { DataSet ds = GetContactName(); repeaterGroup.DataSource = ds; repeaterGroup.DataBind(); } My question is, how to call LoadData from above webmethod. LoadData() method is not recognized from the webmethod.

How can a web-service method binds data? If
LoadData()method is in your web page and you are trying to call it from web-service, then whatever you are doing is pointless. Do more reading on web-services and how they work before you work on them.Navaneeth How to use google | Ask smart questions

Everything has a necessity and I wanted to clearly communicate that am not a beginner. Please ask why this is needed if you are interested to help or opt to stay out. There will be somebody else who will be willing to help. When I have posted a question on a forum, it clearly means I am looking for a solution. This is what am trying to achieve. Ajax control, collapsible panel extender(cpe) needs to expand a panel containing a repeater control and load data into repeater when the panel is expanded. I found that there is no server side click event but there is an expand-collapse javascript handler. To call server side code from AJAX, Pagemethods can be used. <asp:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" EnablePageMethods="true" runat="server"> </asp:ScriptManager> [System.Web.Services.WebMethod] public static DataSet GetContactName() { DataSet ds = new DataSet(); XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); ds.ReadXml(System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath("App_Data/Group.xml")); LoadData(ds); } public void LoadData(DataSet ds) { DataSet ds = GetContactName(); repeaterGroup.DataSource = ds; repeaterGroup.DataBind(); } I am not able to access LoadData from GetContactName(). Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

you're not a beginner, but you want to know how to call a non static method from a static method ? The only way to do this, is to have an instance of the class that contains the non static method. However, as your control is within a page lifecycle, you can't just create a page instance from out of nowhere, it won't create the lifecycle you need, as a page is not being requested. Therefore, it cannot be done, you need instead to create a page lifecycle, and call your method within that lifecycle. Otherwise, there's no chance you're going to see anything appear in your page.
