I've got the following Javascript function
http_post = function (url, data, success) {
var json_data = JSON.stringify(data);
return $.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: url,
data: json_data,
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
success: success,
fail: function(sender, message, details) {
console.log(sender, message, details);
}
});
}
Which I am calling like this
$('#teammate_search_input').keyup(delay(function (e) {
var value = $(this).val();
http_post("{{ \Path::href('roster', 'search_name') }}", {name: value}, function(data) {
console.log(data);
});
}, 500));
Which is hitting this PHP script
if(!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) && strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) == 'xmlhttprequest') {
$download = $this->model('download');
$results = $download->search_teammate($_POST['name']);
echo json_encode(['term' => $_POST['name'], 'results' => $results]);
}
Which is supposed to simply pull a list of users with a name that matches the input. This is all working fine (I get the response I am expecting), except the term is always set to null, so it returns a list of all users.
Result:
{term: null, results: Array(5)}
It appears as though the data is not being sent over the request.
Things I've tried:
{name: value} to {name: 'test'} (2nd param of function call)var json_data line and replaced data: json_data, with data: dataWhy is my data not being sent over the request?
Is your PHP endpoint configured to accept JSON? I don't believe this is the case by default (assuming you're not using a server-side library or framework).
You can instead send form-urlencoded data. To do that remove contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8", and use data: data without calling JSON.stringify() on it, like this:
let http_post = function(url, data, success) {
return $.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: url,
data: data,
dataType: "json",
success: success,
fail: function(sender, message, details) {
console.log(sender, message, details);
}
});
}
Note that this makes your function almost entirely redundant, but I left it in anyway.
