Passing variable from javascript to PHP using ajax in yii

Question

I want to pass variable from javascript to php using POST and I am doing something like the following. I view1.php

 <script>
function testing(col) {
    $("#bookId").val(col);
    $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: <?php echo Yii::app()->createUrl('siteaccess/create') ?>,
            data: {ad_id:<?php echo "hello" ?>},
            success: function(col){console.log(col)},
    });
}
</script>

In same file I have following code calling testing()

function(){
testing($(this).parent().parent().children(\':nth-child(2)\').text());
 }

In create.php I have

<?php 
$v = $_POST['ad_id'];
echo $v;
?>

For create.php I am getting this error "Undefined index: ad_id". Can anyone guide where I am making mistake?

at .ajax you haven't escaped your url: '<php>' and you should define dataType — Svetoslav

You have missed the semicolumn in the php code and also define the dataType in the ajax request:

$.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: "<?php echo Yii::app()->createUrl('siteaccess/create'); ?>",
        data: {"ad_id":"<?php echo 'hello'; ?>"},
        dataType: 'text',
        success: function(col){console.log(col)},
});

use the above code.

@user2673943 you cann't get the data directly on the view page you need to get the data on controller's action then send it to view page. may be this is the issue. see this : stackoverflow.com/questions/12301639/…

ok I tried that also I changed $_POST to Yii::app()->request->getPost('ad_id'); Now no error is shown but when I echo Yii::app()->request->getPost('ad_id'); nothing is displayed.

Neither your URL or ad_id contain quotes so it won't work. Try this:

<script>
function testing(col) {
    $("#bookId").val(col);
    $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "<?php echo Yii::app()->createUrl('siteaccess/create') ?>",
            data: {ad_id:"<?php echo "hello" ?>"},
            success: function(col){console.log(col)},
    });
}
</script>
