Sending Associative Array From PHP through ajax back to PHP

Question

I am receiving an associative array from PHP via $_GET through the following url: example.com/example.php?itemcount[A]=2&itemcount[B]=3

The result of using json_encode() is the following: { "A" : "2", "B" : "3" }

I want to send this to another php file via ajax. How can I do this?

EDIT: I additionally want to send other variables such as through data: {"var1" : "val1", "var2" : "val2", "var3" : "val3" }.

How can I send all of these?

you can do this by defining an ajax call which will send the result of your first call to a second URL — Félix Adriyel Gagnon-Grenier, Aug 18 '14 at 17:44

you probably want to send the result from json_encode() to another server in PHP via POST.

see How do I send a POST request with PHP?

I think you are looking for this:

  $.ajax({
            url: '/path/hello.php',
            type: 'post',
            dataType: 'json',
            success: function (data) {
               //your code here..
            },
            data: jsonDataVar   //jsonDataVar = { "A" : "2", "B" : "3" }
        });

What if I already have variables and values in the form `data: { var1: val1, var2: val2 }` and want the array in addition to that? – spooky655 Aug 18 '14 at 17:51
what data you want to send ? if its json, store it in variable and send it as per my answer. – Vivek Pratap Singh Aug 18 '14 at 17:54
so i have `{ var1: val1, var2: val2 } and { "A" : "2", "B" : "3 }`. How do I send all of that? – spooky655 Aug 18 '14 at 18:00
you could do like var finalObj = json1.concat(json2); and send finalObj in your ajax call. – Vivek Pratap Singh Aug 19 '14 at 03:42

I avoided the issue by keeping the php code in the same file as I am receiving the array.
