Get all Form values - working with jquery ajax in PHP
Solution 1
var $results = '';
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
echo $results .= "$key = $value;";
}
// $results holds the posted values
Solution 2
foreach($_POST as $form_key => $form_val){ }
you will not want to query each time inside this loop, however. Instead append each time to a string that you will query with afterwards.

I'm using this jquery to serialize my form and pass it to a PHP script called write.php;
$("form").submit(function(){ var_form_data = $(this).serialize(); $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "write.php", data: var_form_data, success: function(msg){ alert( "Data Saved: " + msg ); } }); });
Normally, lets say I had a form with the fields Address F_name and S_name, I'd do something like this to get the values into PHP vars;
$Address = $_POST["Address"]; $F_name = $_POST["F_name"]; $S_name = $_POST["S_name"];
I'd then go onto persist these to the DB
However, this particular form is liable to change on a regular basis. Therefore, I'd like to be able to get at all of the data that was passed through the ajax request in the form of a string that I can explode or an array.
I can then loop through the items in the array and persist them to the DB one by one (i think!).
I hope this makes sense, if I have missed anything or you would like me to explain further please let me know.
As always - all help is very much appreciated.
