Submit form input array with jQuery ajax post
Ok, I want to submit a form via jquery ajax. All inputs are in an array and are multidimensional.
Its a dynamic form using the array key as the question id. This section is used to group questions in a given set.
<form name="testing" id="testing" method="post">
<label>Question 1?</label>
<input type="text" name="data[14][1]" id="" class="" value=""><br>
<label>Question 2?</label>
<input type="text" name="data[16][1]" id="" class="" value=""><br>
<label>Question 1?</label>
<input type="text" name="data[14][2]" id="" class="" value=""><br>
<label>Question 2?</label>
<input type="text" name="data[16][2]" id="" class="" value=""><br>
<label>Question 3?</label>
<select name="data[19]" id="" class="">
<option value="1">1</option>
<option value="2">2</option>
<option value="3">3</option>
<option value="4">4</option>
</select><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
So this is my html example. Here's my jquery example:
$("#testing").submit(function() {
var data = $('input[name^="data\\["]').serializeArray();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "upload.php",
data: {internalform: "submit", data: data},
dataType : "text",
success: function(returndata){
if(returndata == "no")
{ return false;
} else {
alert("clicked 1 " + returndata);
}
}
});
return false;
});
The problem is I am getting this as an array returned:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[name] => data[14]
[value] => sd
)
[1] => Array
(
[name] => data[16]
[value] => s
)
)
But I need an array like this:
Array ( [14] => ddd [16] => ddd [19] => 4 )
I'm sure this is simple, but I'm missing something. I know why it does it, but I cannot get it the way I want it. Can anyone please help?

Try below snippet, I haven't tested it but it should probably work.
Replace part var data = $('input[name^="data\\["]').serializeArray();
below with snippet
var data = {};
$.each($('input[name^="data\\["]').serializeArray(), function() {
data[this.name] = this.value;
});
Try this, it will solve the data coming out before the problems
I developed this
var data = {};
$.each($('select[name^="data\\["] , input[name^="data\\["]').serializeArray(), function() {
var vv = this.name.replace(/data/, '' ).replace(/(\[[0-9]\])$/,'');
data[vv] = this.value;
});
