Passing data with dataAdapter

[TylParticipant]

Hi,

I need to send a parameter (named table_name) to my php file on the server.
I saw in the documentation that I could use the POST method.
That’s what I did in the following code, but I don’t get the data in my php file.
However, I use POST method to send data to my php file with $.ajax() and it works perfectly.

Works :

$.ajax({
		url : 'php/remove_user.php',
		type : 'POST',
		data : 'id='+id_user,
                ...

Does not work:

  var movies_data_source =
  {
    url : 'php/get_movies.php',
    type : 'POST',
    data : 'table_name=Collection_1_1',
    dataType : 'xml',
    id: 'Id',
    datafields: [
      { name: 'Id', type: 'string' }
    ],
    root: 'Movies',
    record: 'Movie'
  };

  var dataAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(movies_data_source, {
    loadComplete: function (data) {
         var records = dataAdapter.records;
         var length = records.length;
         alert('loadComplete length = ' + length);
    },
  });

I found what was wrong, I had to use a different format to pass my data.

I have to use
data: {table_name: table_name}
instead of
data: “table_name=”+table_name

Not very clear in the doc however, but found it ;o)
