I have been trying to send an ajax request to a php page. I have had no problems for regular HTML field data, however I am unable to figure out the correct syntax to pass a html field by name, when the name is an array.

Here is an example of what I mean:

<input type='checkbox' name='selected[]' value='my value'>

There is several of these as they are generated dynamically.

I attempt to call it as such :

$.post('myProcess.php',{exportSelected:true,myValues:$("input[name='selected[]']").val()})
                .done(function(data){
                    console.log(data);              
});

This works perfectly fine if I pass it as a single value, eg selected without there []. I am unsure how to say "pass ALL the values of selected[] if they are checked"

I have found a couple examples of posting regular javascript arrays, however this does not seem to help in this case.

  • For multiple you have iterate using each function and store values in array. And then send those values as json string or just array of selected values Commented Nov 28, 2019 at 19:34
  • As @Manjunath says use a loop to store the values e.g : var selected = $('input[name="selected[]"]').map((i,e)=>{ if(e.checked){ return e.value; } }) console.log(selected); Commented Nov 28, 2019 at 21:48
