Asp.net pagemethods not working with most browsers

Question

I am using ASP.net pagemethods. This issue I am having is that it wont work with certain browsers. e.g IE, Opera Safari and the new Firefox. It works with Chrome. I found this but didn't help in my case http://www.carlj.ca/2008/06/18/fixing-firefoxs-ns_error_not_available-error-when-using-pagemethods/ any help would be much appreciated.

<asp:ScriptManager ID=”scManager″ enablepagemethods=”true” runat=”server” />

<asp:Button ID="btnBuyNow" runat="server" Text="Buy Now" OnClientClick="AddProductToCart()" />



<script type="text/javascript">

   function AddProductToCart() {

      //hard coded values for testing, productId, quantity

      PageMethods.AddProduct(142, 1);

      window.location.href = '../Cart.aspx';

   }

</script>



[System.Web.Services.WebMethod]

public static void AddProduct(string prodId, string quantity)

{

    //adding product to cart

    //When testing with Chrome breakpoint is hit,

    //All other browsers dont hit break point

    CurrentCart.AddProduct(prodId, quantity);

}

There might be a better solution to this but this was the only thing that eventually worked.

<script type="text/javascript">

function AddProductToCart() {

  //hard coded values for testing, productId, quantity
  PageMethods.AddProduct(142, 1);

  var millisecondsToWait = 500;
           setTimeout(function () {
               window.location.href = '../Cart.aspx';
           }, millisecondsToWait);
       }
  </script>
