Post JS Array to PHP

[diabolo]

I've googled this up already, but everything is very confusing for me. (I totally fail at JS)

I have an array in JS, and I need to get it to PHP to process and dump the information into the database.

http://www.hscripts.com/tutorials/php/jsArrayToPHP.php seems to give a quite good example.

If you don't want to have a form though (you could hide it), you could create an advance system using cookies and AJAX and server partial request/response :biggrin:

I don't get Step 4 where you have to split the string back to an array in PHP, they don't say how.

What type of data? The answer will affect the generality of the solution.

# dpGetSelected( ) returns Array
Gets a list of Dates currently selected by this datePicker. This will be an empty array if no dates are currently selected or NULL if there is no datePicker associated with the matched element.
Example:

Will alert an empty array (as nothing is selected yet)

$('.date-picker').datePicker();
alert($('.date-picker').dpGetSelected());

The fourth part is quite easy to write (I wrote it myself):

<?php

$data = $_POST['arv']; //you need to sanitize it, though

$array = explode(",", $data);

?>
