How to send multiple jQuery arrays to an MVC controller?

Question

I have created and filled various arrays using jquery. First time, trying to send JavaScript arrays to MVC controller.

Can I have an example how to do that? How can I send the arrays and other variables as well? On the controller side, how can I retrieve the data?

You'll probably want to use jQuery.ajax, with a dataType parameter of 'json'. You can send any JSON object. Possible example:

var obj = {'foo': 'bar'};

$.ajax({
   type: "POST",
   url: "some.aspx",
   dataType: "json",
   contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8", 
   data: obj,
   success: function(resp){
     alert("Response: " + resp);
   }
 });
