jQuery Ajax and getting the data

keulu, Thank you so much. After 4 hours of changing things back and forth last night I was about ready to give up. It was the content type, I had contentType: 'application/json'; set in the ajax call, changing it to x-www-form-urlencoded fixed this. Thank you!

Avenirer, the game is currently hosted on the same domain, so there's no cross-origin going on at the moment. But thank you for the reply, I need to bookmark that because eventually the game will run from mobile devices with PhoneGap and will have to do some cross-origin requests.
