    <p>I am working with PHP/CURL and would like to send POST data to my phantomjs script, by setting the postfields array below:</p> <p>In my php controller I have:</p> <pre><code>$data=array('first' =&gt; 'John', 'last' =&gt; 'Smith'); $url='http://localhost:7788/'; $output = $this-&gt;my_model-&gt;get_data($url,$data); </code></pre> <p>In my php model I have:</p> <pre><code>public function get_data($url,$postFieldArray) { $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, $cookieFile); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, TRUE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, TRUE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0)"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, TRUE); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $postFieldArray); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); $output = curl_exec($ch); </code></pre> <p>In my phantomJS script that I am running locally I have:</p> <pre><code>// import the webserver module, and create a server var server = require('webserver').create(); var port = require('system').env.PORT || 7788; console.log("Start Application"); console.log("Listen port " + port); // Create serever and listen port server.listen(port, function(request, response) { // Print some information Just for debbug console.log("We got some requset !!!"); console.log("request method: ", request.method); // request.method POST or GET if(request.method == 'POST' ){ console.log("POST params should be next: "); console.log("POST params: ",request.post); exit; } </code></pre> <p>I first start and run the phantomjs script (myscript.js) from the command line, then I run my php script.</p> <p>The output is:</p> <pre><code>$ phantomjs.exe myscript.js Start Application Listen port 7788 null We got some requset !!! request method: POST POST params should be next: POST params: ------------------------------e70d439800f9 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="first" John ------------------------------e70d439800f9 Content-Disposition: form-data; name="last" Smith ------------------------------e70d439800f9-- </code></pre> <p>I'm confused about the the output. I was expecting something more like:</p> <pre><code>first' =&gt; 'John', 'last' =&gt; 'Smith </code></pre> <p>Can someone explain why it looks this way? How can I parse the request.post object to assign to variables inside myscript.js</p> <p>Edit:</p> <p>I've made the changes you have suggested in your answer in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19418277/how-can-i-send-post-data-to-a-phantomjs-script/19418512#19418512">How can I send POST data to a phantomjs script</a>.</p> <p>As you suggested, I changed the php/curl encoding to</p> <pre><code> curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, urlencode(json_encode($postFieldArray))); </code></pre> <p>In the phantomjs script, I have:</p> <pre><code>if(request.method == 'POST' ){ console.log("POST params should be next: "); console.log(request.headers); var data = JSON.parse(request.post); console.log("POST params: ",data); </code></pre> <p>when I run the script from php I see the following in my console:</p> <pre><code>Start Application .... POST params should be next: [object Object] </code></pre> <p>At this point, the script hangs and I cannot see any output in the dev tools browser console . Can you advise me on how to see the contents of the object?</p>

    1. COWhen you directly log an object without trying to convert it to a string, there would normally be an arrow allowing you to expand and inspect it -- at least in Chrome developer tools, which is what I usually use. If you're a Firefox user, maybe installing Firebug would help.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
