can't receive JS variable values in PHP using AJAX

Question

I'm trying to send a Javascript variable to a php file. Everething is ok in the JS side, I receive a msg that data is sent, but in the php side nothing happen, here is my JS code:

$(".add-to-cart").click(function(event){


    event.preventDefault();

$.ajax({
type: "POST",// see also here
url: 'c.php',// and this path will be proper
data: {
       source1: "some text",
       source2: "some text 2"}
}).done(function( msg )
      {
       alert( "Data Saved: " + msg );// see alert is come or not
     });

});

and the php code:

<?php
$src1= $_POST['source1'];  
$src2= $_POST['source2'];     

echo $src1; 
echo $src2;
?>

Have you watched the AJAX request / response in the browser's developer tools? Have you included the jQuery library in the project? Are there any errors reported? Are you running this on a web-server? — Jay Blanchard

Everything is ok in browser's developer tools (JS side), and I,ve already included the jQuery library. the problem is in the php side — user6390975

Try it with:

method: "POST"

Not instead or with the type param too. From jquery docs:

From the docs

You should use type if you're using versions of jQuery prior to 1.9.0.

But it doesn't meantion type is not working in newer versions, at least this is what I experienced.

Try this

1) create a file output.log

In you PHP file

$data = file_get_contents('php://input');
$stream = json_encode($data);
$request = json_encode($_REQUEST);
file_put_contents('output.log', "$stream\n$request);

If non output, then is something wrong between your web page and php. probably routeS?

As you send a object, probably you get a stream

Because you are not receiving any data. can you press 12 --> go to console tab and try this pastebin.com/c8udThgc
