I'm facing an issue passing a JSON array from a jQuery AJAX call to a PHP file and attempting to write the received data to a file. This is my code:
var contacts = [{"address":[],"phone":[],"last_name":"abc","email":[{"address":"<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="e89c8d9b9ca89189808787c68b8785">[email protected]</a>","type":null,"selected":true}],"first_name":"Test"}];
$.ajax({
url: 'handler.php',
type: "POST",
dataType: 'json',
data: { 'json': JSON.stringify(contacts) } ,
success: function(response){
alert(response);
}
});
Here's the PHP code I'm using:
$json = $_POST['json'];
$response = json_decode($json);
$file = fopen('test.txt','w+');
fwrite($file, $response);
fclose($file);
echo "Done";
The problem I'm encountering is that the JSON data is not being written into the file, resulting in an empty file.
