Use POST Method to Send Data in jQuery Ajax
The jQuery.post( url, [data], [callback], [type] ) method loads a page from the server using a POST HTTP request.
Here is the description of all the parameters used by this method −
- url − A string containing the URL to which the request is sent
- data − This optional parameter represents key/value pairs or the return value of the .serialize() function that will be sent to the server.
- callback − This optional parameter represents a function to be executed whenever the data is loaded successfully.
- type − This optional parameter represents a type of data to be returned to callback function: "xml", "html", "script", "json", "jsonp", or "text".
Let’s say we have the following PHP content in result.php file:
<?php if( $_REQUEST["name"] ) { $name = $_REQUEST['name']; echo "Welcome ". $name; } ?>
Here's the code snippet to implement how to use POST method to send data in jQuery Ajax:
<head> <script src = "https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script> <script> $(document).ready(function() { $("#driver").click(function(event){ $.post( "result.php", { name: "John" }, function(data) { $('#stage').html(data); } ); }); }); </script> </head> <body> <p>Click on the button to load result.html file −</p> <div id = "stage" style = "background-color:cc0;"> STAGE </div> <input type = "button" id = "driver" value = "Load Data" /> </body>
