Retrieve data in javascript from jquery post

Question

I want to perform a post action in the client side to call a javascript based webscript(server side ) in order to delete and element and do more stuff.

If i perform in the client side a post call like this

var data = {
  option: "erase",
  noderef: 5832
};

$.post(Alfresco.constants.PROXY_URI + "extractor-jdocs",
  data, 
  callback_function);

How can i manage to read "data" in the server side? (javascript)

You can call repo webscript/server side webscript from client side js.

var data = {
  option: "erase",
  noderef: 5832
};
Alfresco.util.Ajax.jsonPost(

{

                url: Alfresco.constants.PROXY_URI + "mypostwebscripturl",

                dataObj:data,

                successCallback: {

                                fn: function(res){

                                   alert("success");

                                   alert(res.responseText);                                                                                            

                                },

                                scope: this

                },

                                failureCallback:

                                {

                                   fn: function(response)

                                   {

                                                  // Display error message and reload

                                                  Alfresco.util.PopupManager.displayPrompt(

                                                  {

                                                                 title: Alfresco.util.message("message.failure", this.name),

                                                                 text: "search failed"

                                                  });                                          

                                   },

                                   scope: this

                                }

});

},

pass your data to dataObj like dataObj:data

and create post webscript and you can get your post parameters in your server side/data/repo webscripts like this

var param1 = json.get("noderef");

and do what you wanted to do .
