file_get_contents("php://input")
or $HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA
- which one is better to get the body of JSON request?
And which request type (GET
or POST
) should I use to send JSON data when using client side XmlHTTPRequest
?
My question was inspired from this answer: How to post JSON to PHP with curl
Quote from that answer:
From a protocol perspective
file_get_contents("php://input")
is actually more correct, since you're not really processing http multipart form data anyway.
