My job is actually search data on textbox keypress and get data in textbox, data will show as dropdown list in textbox, not in Gridview. I tried to do it - first I took a text box, bring data using a class/ service, call the class/service method(sql query) on asp.net client side using Json : POST Method in textbox. But this post method is not getting the class/service method. Is there any good idea to get data in textbox? May be I need to use Ajax/ Json, but I do not get the way to do.
