Why is it that I can never get JQuery serialize to work properly. I guess I must be missing something.
I can serialize a form data and it shows in an alert:
var forminfo = $j('#frmuserinfo').serialize();
alert(forminfo);
I then post to my PHP page thus:
$j.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "cv-user-process.php",
data: "forminfo="+forminfo,
cache: false,
complete: function(data) {
}
});
But WHENEVER (not the first time) I try to insert/update the data in the DB I only ever get 1 varaible passed:
Here is my PHP script:
$testit = mysql_query("UPDATE cv_usersmeta SET inputtest='".$_POST['forminfo']."' WHERE user='X'");
the data passed only ever gets the first variable. why?
I think it is more the way I deal with the php but it drives me nuts and always takes me far too long to find where I am going wrong.
