    I picked this one up from the MSDN Blogsphere (sorry to echo back to MSDN`ers) By default, the AJAX Control

    kd86, My guess is that you need to increase the value of the maxJsonLength setting: msdn.microsoft.com/.../bb513882.aspx Hope this helps!

    Hi, Thanks for responding. Here is a snippet from my web.config where I am setting the maxJsonLength: </connectionStrings>  <system.web>       <webServices>          <jsonSerialization maxJsonLength="5000000"></jsonSerialization>       </webServices> Setting this to "50" or "50000000" dosent seem to make any difference.How do I know that this setting actually took effect? Also, when the rendering fails, does it write to some log? I am very new to this technology and therefore have some very basic questions ... Thanks!

    kd86, I think you may have that in the wrong place. The document I linked to and the following place it inside "system.web.extensions": msdn.microsoft.com/.../bb763183.aspx If that doesn't help, one thing that usually does is looking at the network traffic with a network monitor like Fiddler. The error/exception is often sent back to the client and you can see it in the network trace to get an idea exactly what's going wrong.

    Hi, Thanks very much! Initially putting the <web services extension> tag caused a failure in the webpage. Then tracking through that I realized that this tag is available only in .NET Framework 4.0 (and NOT available in 2.0). After setting that and also setting the ISAPI and CGI Restrictions for 4.0 to "allowed" everything WORKED! The list now renders for larger sizes of the array as well. The network traffic may not be acceptable though ... I will try Fiddler when I get a chance! Thanks again!
