jQuery/JSON/PHP failing
- by user730936
I am trying to call a php script that accepts JSON data, writes it into a file and returns simple text response using jQuery/AJAX call.
jQuery code :
$("input.callphp").click(function() {
var url_file = myurl";
$.ajax({type : "POST",
url : url_file,
data : {'puzzle': 'Reset!'},
success : function(data){
alert("Success: " + data);
},
error : function (data) {
alert("Error: " + data);
},
dataType : 'text'
});
});
PHP Code :
<?php
$thefile = "new.json"; /* Our filename as defined earlier */
$towrite = $_POST["puzzle"]; /* What we'll write to the file */
$openedfile = fopen($thefile, "w");
fwrite($openedfile, $towrite);
fclose($openedfile);
echo "<br> <br>".$towrite;
?>
However, the call is never a success and always gives an error with an alert "Error : [Object object]".
