How to return mutiple value using ajax in jQuery

Question

JQUERY

$.ajax({
        url: 'save.php',
        type: 'POST',   
        success:function () 


        var id = html.$id;
        var name = html.$name;  
        alert(id);
        alert(name); 
    });

SAVE.PHP

<?php
    include("db.php");

    $sql = "INSERT into test(Name)values('') ";

    if (mysql_query($sql))
    {
        $id = mysql_insert_id();
        echo $name = "Peter";
        echo $id;
    }
?>

How can retrieve specific data and store in a specific variable in my Jquery? Please ignore my Name in php, because I just randomly assign variable to it

How to return two different data, and store them in 2 variable?

I know it is incorrect, please tell me the correct way of doing it

read up about jquery ajax calls. Also, read up about parsing objects. You also need to return an object from your php code. — karthikr

JS

$.ajax({
    url : 'save.php',
    type: 'POST',
    dataType: 'JSON'
}).done(function(data) {
    alert(data.id);
    alert(data.name); 
});

PHP

<?php
    include("db.php");

    $sql = "INSERT into test(Name)values('') ";

    if (mysql_query($sql)) {
        $arr = array(
                     "id"   => mysql_insert_id(),
                     "name" => "Peter"
                    );

        echo json_encode($arr);
    }
?>

You can return the value as in JSON format in key-value pair. Since I do not have much knowledge over php, but if possible try to return any JSON or XML response from your php code:

$.ajax({
      url: 'save.php',
      type: 'POST',
      success:function(response) 
        // here you can use response to display your value
      });
