This type of page is not served. Description: The type of page you have requested is not served because it has been explicitly forbidden. Please review the URL below and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

timer.ascx

[WebMethod]
public static string returnTime()
{
    return DateTime.Now.ToString();
}

showTime.aspx 

$(function () {
        $(".currDropDown").change(function () {
            $.ajax({
                type: "POST",
                url: "time.ascx/returnTime",
                data: "{}",
                contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                dataType: "json",

You can't host ASP.NET AJAX page methods within ASCX controls, only in ASPX code behind (or, you could use an ASMX ScriptService to centralize the functionality).
