If you want to hide name and assembly details of classes you return in your AjaxMethod simple add the AjaxPro.AjaxNoTypeUsage attribute as meta information:

[AjaxPro.AjaxNoTypeUsage]
public class MyReturnValue
{
   public string FirstName;
   public int Age;
   public bool IsMarried;
}

Adding this will remove the JSON property __type from the result value. You will save some bytes (i.e. if used in arrays) and get rid of internal information of your namespace and assembly name conventions.

// before
var json = {__type:"MyNamespace.MyClass,MyAssemnly",
            Firstname:"Michael",Age:29,IsMarried:true};
// after
var json = {Firstname:"Michael",Age:29,IsMarried:true};

  Excellent...I was hoping there was a way to do that but just learned to live with it.

  Nice. Is there a way to set this in the web.config so that we don't have to do this for every method?
