______________________________
xmlhttp.open("GET","abc.php?name=Alvin&age=12",true);
______________________________
where, abc.php is the another php file to which this request is made. and I want to get the URL data (name and age) in that file... how can I? should I go for $_GET?

Answer 1

If you want to get the query string there is a fairly easy way:

Answer 2

it depends on how the data is sent through the ajax request
$.ajax ({
type: "POST",
url: "abc.php",
data: { 'test' : item },
success: function(result) { console.log(result); }
});
if your type is post,use $_POST and vice-versa

Answer 3

in php you should have something like...
if( isset($_POST['test']))
{
$data=$_POST['test']
}
the "if" statement isnt necessary,just to ensure $data wouldn't be null

Answer 4

Are you trying to access the php file through browser without parameters or is that what you get as request response?

Answer 5

That’s weird. You can try to use onreadystatechange even handler and check if the status is 200 but I don’t think it makes any different.

Answer 6

Answer 9

Answer 10

yes I checked whether the get is set or not😣😣... and echo a message there.. something like this...
if(isset($_GET['name']))
{
echo ('recieved');
} else{
echo('failed');
}

just checking the name field for now...the control enters in the if statement but when I use the get to get the data it shows... nothing😣😣
