how i can pass string variable with url in load function?

Question

here i have variable fileVal takes path of file like uploads/import/abc.pdf

var fileVal = $('#fileimport').val();

here fileVal takes path of file like uploads/import/abc.pdf

i have to send this file path as url variable to a php file and then display result on messagediv. like

  $('#messagediv').load('../xyz.php?file='+fileVal);

here without url variable, its working perfect getting values to the messagediv.

But where as using url variable its not.

How i can solve this?

Well, don't send it as URL. Break it in several get variables. Like ...xyz.php?path=uploads-import&filename=abc.pdf then construct the url in xyz.php by replacing the dashes of the path with forward slashes and adding the filename at the end — Kiro Coneski

That should work fine except you have a syntax error

// $var fileVal = $('#fileimport').val();
var fileVal = $('#fileimport').val();
