I have an a
tag that is dynamically generated with database content, it includes a data-target that I capture in javascript when it is clicked on, this is an example of one of the generated buttons:
<a href="#" data-target="edit/?id=1">Edit</a>
Simple, right?
Now, what I do in the JS when it is clicked, is as so:
var $this = $(this),
$target = $this.data("target"),
$endpointURL = "";
$endpointURL = $target.split("?id=")[0];
$id = $target.split("?id=")[1];
This allows me to set the endpoint I want, in out example above, it would be "edit" and also set the id which is just a number at this point.
Now, I have to POST this ID to the edit endpoint to return the right info, correct?
So, here is my AJAX for that:
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
data: '{"id": ' + $id + ' }',
url: "../assets/scripts/php/" + $endpointURL,
success: function (data) {
$("#content-lockup").html(data);
},
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
console.log("error: " + textStatus + ", error thrown: " + errorThrown);
}
});
This does not throw an error and does indeed output a var dump of the $_POST array as I have set it to, however it doesnt contain my ID that I passed over, here is the code on the endpoint and a screenshot of the output:
<?php
var_dump($_POST);
?>
Why would the vardump on $_POST not contain the id that I passed over in the apparently successful AJAX request?
What I expect is that I can say on the endpoint, something like:
$id = $_POST['id'];
Maybe its something obvious that i'm doing wrong but yeah, any ideas?
it's because you are passing a string to data
that isn't form encoded
Make it an object and jQuery will encode it for you
data: {"id": $id },
If it's a string it needs to be in format
data: 'id=' +id + '&someOtherParam=' + somevar
