Is there any way to call web services from javascript? I know you can add in a script manager to pull in the web services but I can't figure out how to access the functions from javascript once I've done that.
Thanks,
Matt

Please see Calling Web Services from Client Script in ASP.NET AJAX:
This topic explains how to use to call a Web service from ECMAScript (JavaScript). To enable your application to call ASP.NET AJAX Web services by using client script, the server asynchronous communication layer automatically generates JavaScript proxy classes. A proxy class is generated for each Web service for which an
<asp:ServiceReference>element is included under the<asp:ScriptManager>control in the page.

That link is no longer valid. Try asp.net/ajaxlibrary/Using%20Web%20Services%20in%20Ajax.ashx
See Using jQuery to Consume ASP.NET JSON Web Services by Dave Ward.
$(document).ready(function() {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "RSSReader.asmx/GetRSSReader",
data: "{}",
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
success: function(msg) {
// Hide the fake progress indicator graphic.
$('#RSSContent').removeClass('loading');
// Insert the returned HTML into the <div>.
$('#RSSContent').html(msg.d);
}
});
});
