jQuery posting JSON

by

update: I would like to pass the var value to the server

hello,
same old, same old … 🙂

I have a form called <form id="testForm" action="javascript:test()"> and a code area called <code id="testArea"></code>

I am using this code to stringify and display the data in the code area:

var formData = form2object('testForm');
document.getElementById('testArea').innerHTML = JSON.stringify(formData, null, '\t');
var value = JSON.stringify(formData, null, '\t');

What I want is to send this data to a JSON file.
I’ve been working on this project : http://ridegrab.com/profile_old/ and if you press Submit Query button you will see the head of the page populate.

Also I want use this piece of script to send data:

    function authenticate(userName, password) {
    $.ajax
    ({
        type: "POST",
        //the url where you want to sent the userName and password to
        url: 'username:password@link to the server/update',
        dataType: 'json',
        async: false,
        //json object to sent to the authentication url
        data: '{"userName": "' + userName + '", "password" : "' + password + '"}',
        success: function () {

        alert("Thanks!"); 
        }
    })
}

Again, all I want is to be able to send that JSON data to the server. My server is set up to update or POST the data in the right place.
