I’m stuck: I’m trying to submit a form using AJAX, but I can’t find a way to send multiple data fields via my AJAX call.
$(document).ready(function() { $("#btnSubmit").click(function() { var status = $("#activitymessage").val(); var name = "Ronny"; $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "ajax/activity_save.php", **data: "status="+status+"name="+name"**, success: function(msg) {...
I’ve tried all sorts of stuff:
data: {status: status, name: name},
Or even stuff like this just for testing purposes:
data: "status=testing&name=ronny",
But whatever I try, I get nothing in my activity_save.php
thus nothing in my SQL.
So, what’s the correct syntax to put more lines of data in my AJAX call?

Answer
The correct syntax is:
data: {status: status, name: name},
As specified here: http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
So if that doesn’t work, I would alert those variables to make sure they have values.
