Is it feasible to append a variable to the Laravel cookie in the client using jQuery? Understandably, the Cookie is linked to the request during GET?
Can you include a variable in the $request container in Laravel 5.2 using jQuery before initiating a GET route request?
In essence, I am attempting to transmit a value with a GET request while keeping it concealed from the URL as a parameter.
The structure of my HTML resembles a menu:
<ul class="sidebar-nav nav-pills nav-stacked " id="menu">
<li id="menu-1">
<a href="app.url/1">Menu 1</a>
</li>
<li id="menu-2">
<a href="app.url/2">Menu 2</a>
</li>
<li>.....</li>
</ul>
On clicking the a link, I aim to intercept this action and add
menuState = 'state';
To the $request container, then proceed with routing the click event to the destination defined by href.
Thus, at the Laravel end, I should be able to retrieve its value via:
$request->input('menuState');
Is this achievable for what is essentially a GET request without any form submission taking place?
This serves as an illustration of appending a URL variable:
<a onclick="addURL(this)" href="app.url/1">Menu 1</a>
function addURL(element)
{
$(element).attr('href', function() {
return this.href + '&menuState=10';
});
}
Is such a task possible?
<a onclick="addURL(this)" href="app.url/1">Menu 1</a>
function addURL(element)
{
---> ADD menuState = value to $request container, then continue with GET request
}
