passing to ajax an array from multiple selected dropdown - php

Question

this is my Jquery:
$('#Save').click(function () {
var realvalues = new Array(); //storing the selected values inside an array
$('#Privilege :selected').each(function (i, selected) {
realvalues[i] = $(selected).val();
});
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
traditional: true,
url: "http://localhost:8081/crownregency/UpdateOrCreateOrDeleteUser.php",
data: {
Privilege: realvalues,
ID: '1'
},
success: function (data) {
alert(data, 'Status');
location.reload();
}
});
});
this is my php.
I have read quiet a lot about serializing but doesnt seem to work, what i am trying to achieve is sending the selected items of a dropdown into an array and sending it to a php through ajax. but sending the array to the php doesnt seem to work. help anyone?

Answer 1

Your code is okay just remove the traditional: true and your code seems to work
$('#Save').click(function(){
var realvalues = new Array();//storing the selected values inside an array
$('#Privilege :selected').each(function(i, selected) {
realvalues[i] = $(selected).val();
});
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "http://localhost:8081/crownregency/UpdateOrCreateOrDeleteUser.php",
data: {Privilege: realvalues, ID: '1'},
success:function(data){
$("#subscrres").html(data)
}
});
});
HTML
<form method="post">
<select id="Privilege" multiple="multiple">
<option value="yahoo">yahoo</option>
<option value="chrome">chrome</option>
<option value="mozilla">mozilla</option>
</select>
<input type="button" id="Save"/>
</form>
UpdateOrCreateOrDeleteUser.php
<?php
if(isset($_POST['Privilege'])){
$myvar =$_POST['Privilege'];
foreach($_POST['Privilege'] as $one)
echo $one."<br/>";
}
?>
