Ajax posted data is not visible in controller method - El Forum - 02-11-2011
[eluser]Blue Sapphire[/eluser]
Hi!
Following is my ajax code:
Code:
jQuery.ajax({
'type': 'POST',
'dataType': 'json',
'contentType': 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
'url': 'http://localhost/main/user/view',
'data': ({'active' : 'active_value'}),
'success': function(data){
alert('Good Return Text');
}
});My CI controller's method code is as follows:
Code:
function view()
{
if($this->input->is_ajax_request()){
var_dump($this->input->post('active'));
}
}The Firebug is showing following post resuest :
Quote:active=active_value
The Firebug is showing following response :
Quote:bool(false)
Can someone guide me what Iam doing wrong.
NOTE: CI version: 2.0 , jQuery version: 1.5
Thanks in advance

You are telling jquery to expect a json response, but you are not sending json from your controller. Also, I think you should probably leave the contentType the default.

I admit I have zero experience with JSON but shouldn't your method be more like:
Code:
function view()
{
if($this->input->is_ajax_request())
{
echo json_encode($this->input->post('active'));
}
}
