How to get back data from php variable to jquery variable using jquery $.POST method

Question

In the below code the $.POST method passes two variables to the php file empProfile.php which retrieves the employee profile from the database. Know I want to receive ID and Name from the php file to the jquery variables. Can someone help me.

data = {
        personnelNo: $('#personnelNo').val(),
        cnic: $('#cnic').val() 
        } //end of data

$.post( 
       "checkEmployee.php",
       data,
       function(data) {
                        var ID =; Name=;


                      } // end of function

      ); // end of post
    //} //end of if statement
}); // end of blur

To answer this, we need to know what your checkEmployee.php returns.. Please post that. — techfoobar

Try this

var ID = '<?php echo $yourId;?>'; 

var Name='<?php echo $yourname;?>';

@Robin, Question is saying that get How to get back data from php variable to jquery variable.... It means he's able to send data from jQuery to PHP but he wants back from PHP to jQuery. And in jQuery response, Will he receive PHP variables?

I want to receive ID and Name from the php file to the jQuery variables. That's the question he is asking. in other words he wants his PHP variables to jQuery

But it's not possible I think. May be he can send output with some string separator combinationation and then can split it in js and can use it.
