In Javascript I'm creating an array for a user side list
var dataArr = [];
$("#sortable li").each(function(idx, elem) {
dataArr[idx] = $(elem).html();
});
alert(dataArr[0]);
This is working as expected and will alert the first item in the list. "Frank" or whatever it may be.
$.ajax({
url: "fiddle.php",
type: "POST",
data: "dataArr="+dataArr,
success: function(response) {
alert(response);}
I send this array over to PHP and the ajax test confirms its retrieved from a var_dump on the other side.
echo ($_POST['dataArr'][1]);
The problem occurs here when trying to output a particular item, in this case the 2nd item which may be "John" it'll instead output the 2nd character in the first item "r". This is appearing in the Ajax test window. I'm looking for the whole word instead. Is it a syntax error or a problem with how the data is passed?
