hi Chhorn, thanks for this. sorry but i am pretty new to coding. the two lines that you wrote must be written exactly like this or i need to replace something in there? e. g. foo.php and var_dump?! additionally both of these lines must be included in the submit.php file or some of them in another file? last thing, what would i need to escape, and what does that mean? Thanks a lot, hope in the near future will be able to avoid these silly questions...

the input/job_title and input/thumbnail-url they both already go through php because these are real visible fields on the form that gets physically populated on the fly. The other field instead textarea/htmlcode is hidden hence cannot be populated on the fly and the value currently is not passed through php. i have a receiving $phpvar now in the file functions.php that will need to get the value from this submit.php form that currently is not getting cause it is not passed. i checked the http header request and i am struggling in finding a way to pass this value.

I have a submit.php file that includes the following jQuery code: <script> [...] request.done(function( json ) { jQuery('input[name=thumbnail-url]').val(json.thumbnail_url); jQuery('input[name=job_title]').val(json.title); jQuery('textarea[name=htmlcode]').val(json.html); [...] </script> I need to remove jQuery('textarea[name=htmlcode]').val(json.html); and pass the "json.html" value into a PHP variable in another php file (functions.php). The code in the functions.php file is already there. The thing i need to do (and i am seriously struggling with it) is placing the value of json.html into a $phpvariable that i can then call from the function.php file. Do you need any more info for this issue? Thanks.
