Jquery ajax success function returns null?

The 'data' option must be a key/value pair. Remove the completely. If you want to send non-processed data look at the 'processData' option.

You don't need to 'contentType'. Data sent to the server is automatically transmitted in UTF-8 charset.

Don't eval() the result - not only is it insecure but setting the dataType to 'json' will already evaluate as json data (without using eval().

Also, don't set ajax to 'false'. If you want it asynchronous, leave it that way. Synchronous/Asynchronous should not effect your code.

This is what it should look like (below), less the URL - since I am not an active member I cannot submit replies with links so please add the URL back. I also changed your success function for better debugging. Run this and reply with the results.

Code:

function getRecordspage() {
    $.ajax({
        type:            "POST",
        url:            "",
        global:            false,
        async:             true,
        dataType:         "json",
        success: function(data, text, xhr){
            alert(data);
            alert(text);
            alert(xhr);
        }
    });
}
