Question

Is it possible to send a parameter (eg. a get variable) with getJSON to a php file, and if so how to do it?

The code below doesn’t work, but hopefully it shows what I try to accomplish.

var url = "http://www.address.com/"

$.getJSON('http://anotheraddress.com/messages.php?url=+escape(url))', function(data) {
    // code here
});

Answer 1

$.getJSON accepts another parameter for data:

var url = "http://www.address.com/"

$.getJSON('http://anotheraddress.com/messages.php', { url: escape(url) }, function(data) {
    // code here
});
