jquery ajax with get

[php_member]

I have the following function:

...
   $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: showresults.php,
    data: "clickedPage=" + clickedPage + "&id=" + id, 
    error: function(){    
      alert('Error loading XML document');          
    },
    success: function(msg){            
    //put results received from ajax call to div           
    }
   }); 
...

Then I have in showresults.php lines

if(!empty($_POST[clickedPage])){
  $clickedPage=$_POST[clickedPage];
 }

Everything is fine, but I don't know how I can use this with GET. I tried to replace type: "POST", with type: "GET", and then if(!empty($_GET[clickedPage])){... but it doesn't work.

What would be the correct syntax in function to get in showresults.php data with GET?

Thanks a lot

Try replacing

url: showresults.php,
data: "clickedPage=" + clickedPage + "&id=" + id,

with

url: "showresults.php?clickedPage=" + clickedPage + "&id=" + id,

I don't think data: has any meaning with GET

p.s. there appears to be qoutes missing in original url:
