title: Is a webmethod in codebehind as secure as the page it is on?
body: <p>This is kind of confusing me.  I would assume the webmethod would follow the same authorization rules set in the web.config as the page it is on.  Will it execute the normal page lifecycle first?  In my case there is extra logic in a basepage that checks further permissions.  Will this logic be executed before the webmetod is called to prevent access from users not permitted to access that page?</p>
