Question

Could you handle the name “John” in php from this getJson()? Could you assign it to a php variable?

var output = [];
$.getJSON('DisplayMap.php',{ Name: "john" },  function(data) {
           for (var i in data.b) {
            output.push(new google.maps.LatLng(data.b[i].Ya, data.b[i].Za));
        }

  });

Since it will initiate a HTTP GET request, you can get variable in PHP as below

$Name = $_GET["name"];
