Question

I have the following script for my client side where i fills up the form and send to server for processing :

           function AjaxCall(){
           var xmlval='<person><name>'+personObject.GetPersonName()+'</name> <contact>'+personObject.GetPersonContact()+'</contact><about>'+personObject.GetPersonName()+'</about></person>';
                //var datas='?xmlvalue='+xmlval;
                xmlhttp.open("POST",'ajaxExecutePersonData.php'+xmlval,true);

                xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-Type", "text/xml");

                xmlhttp.send(xmlval);
              }

I need to know how can i receive this POST to the ajaxExecutePersonData.php

and get response.

I am sending xml Object.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

you need to set the xml as param like this

var params = "foo=bar&bar=foo";

in your case

var params = "xmlval=" + xmlval;

and then set the appropriate headers like

xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Content-length", params.length);
xmlhttp.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");

and replace the send() call with this one:

xmlhttp.send(params)

and then you have $_POST[“xmlval”] in your php script.

hope this helps 🙂
