访问Jquery / AJAX发送的$ _POST数据

Question

I am using this function:

function end_incident() {
    var dataString = 'name=Daniel&phone=01234123456';
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "http://www.example.co.uk/erc/end_incident.php",
        data: dataString,
        success: function(msg){ 
            alert('Success!'+dataString);
        }
    });
};

to send information to end_incident.php , but I'm not able to access the $_POST variables. I've tried doing it like this:

$name = $_POST['name'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for any help

Answer 1

Try sending the data as an object:

function end_incident() {
    $.ajax({
       type: "POST",
       url: "http://www.example.co.uk/erc/end_incident.php",
       data: { name: "Daniel", phone: "01234123456" },
       success: function(msg){ 
            alert('Success!');
       }
    });
};

Make sure the url your requesting for is within the same origin of your site, if it isn't, you've got a cross-site scripting issue. Only way around that:

• Getting "higher" access/priveledges within the browser, ie create an add-on/extension, or use Greasemonkey

• Use a proxy through your own site to get the request for the file:

   var getURL = "http://www.example.co.uk/erc/end_incident.php"; $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "/get_url.php?url=" + encodeURIComponent(getURL), data: { name: "Daniel", phone: "01234123456" }, success: function(msg){ alert('Success!'); } }); 

I recommend you add a error function to your ajax. It's suprising how many people just focus on success and never process an error!

error: function()
{
   console.log(arguments);
}
