Question

I am dealing with receiving params in an action, from an ajax call.

Once in a view, i m getting some values (geolocation)
then i make an ajax call ($.get()) like

controller/action/lat/xxx/long/xxx

to query a db.

In the action i called, i try to get the params via

$lat = $this->_request->getParam("lat");
$long = $this->_request->getParam("long");

BUT,

I m gettinig the params of the url i am in (browser url, not of the ajax url)

any light?
THANKS!

Use $.post() instead of $.get() If you do not want parameters to be send through url .

public function indexAction()
{
  $ret = array();
  $lat = $this->_getParam('lat');
  $long = $this->_getParam('long');
   //save it in your database
   $ret['msg'] = 'Record saved';
  $this->_helper->json($ret); 


}
