'To set the value to a (textbox) server control using jquery ajax

In the below mentioned code, I am able to set the value attained from ajax call only if I am using the HTML controls(button and text). If I am using asp server controls like button, I am not getting any output from ajax call even if I use the button as server control and text box as normal HTML control. Thanks in Advance.

This is because the server side button causes the page to post back to the server...not sure why would you want to use the server control for making a ajax call?

I used preventDefault function its working for me now

<script>
        $(document).ready(function () {
            $('#<%= btnAjax.ClientID %>').click(function (e) {
                alert("clicked e");
                e.preventDefault();

                $.ajax({
                    type: "POST",
                    url: "AjaxCall.aspx/HelloWorld",
                    data: "{}",
                    contentType: "application/json",
                    dataType: "json",
                    success: function (msg) {
                        // Replace the div's content with the page method's return.
                        alert(msg.d);
                        $("#<%=txtAjaxVal.ClientID %>").val(msg.d);
                    }
                });
            });
        });
  </script>
