Question

I wish to add a flag value to indicate to the PHP routine, which functions to execute.

I have tried various options and none seem to work.

I am assuming it is a case of extending the serialised form vars, by adding my extra name/value pair.

My latest attempt is

$.ajax etc etc
data: $('#Form1').serialize().push( { 'phpFlag': 1 } ),

Which says I can not use ‘push’ on this object, which I thought was an array.

Can anyone put me out of my misery. I know I could have used a hidden form value.

Thanks

jQuery’s serialize method returns a string and not an array, just do something like this:

data: $("#Form1").serialize() + "&phpFlag=1";
