Jquery Ajax - post huge string value

ajax, javascript, jquery, post

Solution

You will need to use a POST request:

$.ajax({
    url: '/script.php',
    type: 'POST',
    data: { value: 'some huge string here' },
    success: function(result) {
        alert('the request was successfully sent to the server');
    }
});

and in your server side script retrieve the value:

$_POST["value"]

Also you might need to increase the allowed request size. For example in your `.htaccess` file or in your `php.ini` you could set the `post_max_size` value:

#set max post size
php_value post_max_size 20M

Problem

i need to POST a huge string large about 3mb, is it possible to send it to php using not url params? If i send it in url params the request reachs the size limit in url. How can work around this? any clue? thanks a lot. Actually i'm doing it like this: ``` $.ajax({ type:'POST', ....... data:{string:3MB_string} }); ``` i'm using PHP and jQuery , and i wouldl ike to send the 3mb base64 string to php on a simple url, like `site.com/script.php` The string is a File Reader API base64 image this is an example of string but this won't reach the size limit it is not a 3mb is less cause troubling in pasting that to show you a 3mb, http://jsfiddle.net/QSyMc/
