This is the method in which i manage the data send with jquery.ajax. By default is send an empty string and on each change i watch the change on the input and resend it. Through console things are good but in php $this->searchField always has the value of an empty string

function checkInfo()
 if(isset($_POST['searchField']))
 $this->searchField = json_decode($_POST['searchField']);

 if ($this->searchField != "")
 $this->query = "SELECT * FROM myguests WHERE firstName like '%".$searchField."%'";
 
 else if ($this->searchField == "") 
 $this->query = "SELECT * FROM myguests ORDER BY id";
 
 $this->tableDisplay();
 exit();
 
 else
 return "error";
 
 

This is my jquery ajax function :

function searchGuests(users)
 var data = 
 "searchField": users
 ;
 console.log(data);
 $.ajax(
 type: "POST",
 dataType: "text",
 url: "controllers/manageTable.php",
 data: data
 )
 .done(function(tr) 
 $("#tableBody").empty();
 $("#tableBody").append(tr);
 )
 .fail(function(error)
 console.log(error);
 );
;

Any idea what I am missing?

Try encoding the users to a string before sending it over.

function searchGuests(users)
 var data = 
 "searchField": JSON.stringify(users);
 ;
 console.log(data);
 $.ajax(
 type: "POST",
 dataType: "text",
 url: "controllers/manageTable.php",
 data: data
 )
 .done(function(tr) 
 $("#tableBody").empty();
 $("#tableBody").append(tr);
 )
 .fail(function(error)
 console.log(error);
 );
;
