Question

Sorry about the simple question.

I am posting a JSON object to a PHP page using the following code:

    $.get("ProcessName.php", { name: "John" },
        function(data){
            alert("Data Loaded: " + data);
        });

What code do I need to write in ProcessName.php to have the alert show the name is John?

I realise I could process the JSON object on the client but this is a simple example to help me understand how PHP pages read JSON objects sent from the client. I have ready many questions and beginner tutorials but they all seem to skip this simple step or maybe I am missing something.

Thanks,

In your ProcessName.php page, to alert John all you would need is

echo $_GET['name'];
