I have been studying about ajax and this as far as I can get, I would like to send the text area's content to my server and save it in a text file, but I'm a little bit confused on how to do it, BTW my server is apache tomcat. I've heard that I need a piece of code on server side. Can you help me?
Thanks in advance.
$(document).ready(function() {
var data = new FormData();
var cssData = $("#custom-css-text").val();
data.append("custom_css", cssData);
$.ajax({
url: 'myserver',
type: 'POST',
data: {value:data},
cache: false,
dataType: 'json',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function(response) {
alert(cssData);
},
error: function(jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
alert('ERRORS: ' + textStatus);
}
});
});
#custom-css-text {
border-style: outset;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>

<textarea id="custom-css-text">testing</textarea>
