Values from javascript to PHP - php

Question

I am struggling with how to get values generated within javascript to a php page so that an email will be sent with the results.
function sendmemail(){
var data = 'result=' + result.val();
$.ajax({
url: "process.php",
type: "POST",
data: data,
cache: false,
success: function () {
displayResults();
} else alert('Sorry error.');
});
}

Answer 1

That else part is a syntax error, you can't add an else clause in that way.
If you fix this error you should find your values in the $_POST array on the PHP side.
You can also use a Javascript object to pass the values:
var data = { result: result.val() }
which is more readable.

Answer 2

process.php...
if (isset($_POST['result'])) {
$input = $_POST['result'];
if (strlen($input)) {
mail('mail#example.com','A Subject','$input');
}
}

Answer 3

This should work
<input id="textvalue" name="email#myemail.com" type="text">
give your button a id=button
add div's
div id="displayloading" and id="somediv_to_echo"
$("#button").click(function() {
$('#displayloading').fadeIn('slow', function() {
my_value = $("#textvalue").val().replace(/ /g,"+");
$("#somediv_to_echo").load("mail_send.php?d=" + my_value + "&md=" + new Date().getTime());
$("#textvalue").val("");
});
});

Lets do it form the begining.
HTML:
<form id="frm">
<input type="text" name="email" value="sample#sample.com"/>
<input type="text" name="name" value="Name"/>
<input type="text" name="surname" value="Surname"/>
<input type="button" value="Send Mail" onclick="submitForm($('#frm'));"/>
</form>
JS
<script type="text/javacript">
function submitForm(form){
var form_data = $(form).serialize();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "process.php",
data: form_data,
dataType: 'json',
success: function(data){
if(data.result === 1){
$(form).html("<h2>FORM SEND SUCCESS</h2>");
}else{
$(form).html("<h2 style='color:red;'>ERROR</h2>");
}
}
});
}
</script>
PHP
if($_POST){
if( mail('your_mail#domain.com','Subject',implude(PHP_EOL,$_POST))){
json_encode(array("result"=>1));
exit;
}
json_encode(array("result"=>0));
exit;
}

Answer 5

in javascript try this:
function sendmemail(){
var data = 'result=' + result.val();
var img = document.createElement('img');
img.src='process.php?'+data;
img.style.position='absolue';img.style.width='1px';img.style.height='1px';img.style.top='-10px';
document.body.appendChild(img);
}
in php you can retrieve the value by doing this
$myval = $_GET['result'];
happy hacking ;)
