jquery ajax with get

[php_guest]

I have the following function:

...
      $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: showresults.php,
        data: "clickedPage=" + clickedPage + "&id=" + id, 
        error: function(){        
            alert('Error loading XML document');                    
        },
        success: function(msg){                        
        //put results received from ajax call to div                      
        }
      });  
...

Then I have in showresults.php lines

if(!empty($_POST[clickedPage])){
    $clickedPage=$_POST[clickedPage];
  }

Everything is fine, but I don't know how I can use this with GET. I tried to replace type: "POST", with type: "GET", and then if(!empty($_GET[clickedPage])){... but it doesn't work.

What would be the correct syntax in function to get in showresults.php data with GET?

Thanks a lot

I wouldn't do data: "clickedPage=" + clickedPage + "&id=" + id,
, I would do

PHP Code:

data: {"clickedPage" : clickedPage, "id" : id} 


Also if I may nitpick for a moment, you should be enclosing your array index names in quotes, it's bad form to not.

PHP Code:

if(!empty($_GET['clickedPage'])){
    $clickedPage=$_GET['clickedPage'];
  }
