Hi jemz,

You normally pass a variable to your server-side script, using the data property.

$.ajax({
  type: 'post',
  url: 'myPHPfunction.php',
  data: {registration: "success", name: "Pullo", email: "pullo@pullo.de"}
});

Then, on the server side, you can retrieve it from the _POST variable and act accordingly:

$regstration = $_POST['registration'];
$name= $_POST['name'];
$email= $_POST['email'];

if ($registration == "success"){
 addAccount($name, $email);
}

Hi pullo thank you for the reply…so this code


$regstration = $_POST['registration'];
$name= $_POST['name'];
$email= $_POST['email'];

if ($registration == "success"){
 addAccount($name, $email);
}

Is on top of my function name “addaccount” ?

so the structure would be something like this inside in “myPHPfunction”


 $regstration = $_POST['registration'];
$name= $_POST['name'];
$email= $_POST['email'];

if ($registration == "success"){
 addAccount($name, $email);
}

function addAccount($name,$email){
   ...............
 .................
}

Yes, that’s right, although I would define the function before calling it.
