Question

I am using jquery to post vars to a php script.

Is it possible to access these vars once the script has posted? If I post the data to the php script, is the only way to access it in the html/js that i posted it from, to send it back from the php script as json?

I cant seem to do it in JS, but even php will not work?, Sorry correction i can access the post vars in the php page, but not in the html/js page i posted from

Any ideas how to access posted vars from the page thats doing the posting?

update: yep to be a bit clearer, i am using a html page with javascript to post to a php page, i would like to access the posted vars in the html javascript page. I tried outputting $.post and $.ajax and these just show a long function.

Cheers

How are you submitting your elements to php page? If you are doing everything fine and using ajax (see jquery post method) for example, you can access the php variables normally with $_POST['var_name'].

Make sure that:

• Your form method type is set to POST
• Your ajax request goes successful
• You have specified the correct path to your server side script
