如果只是非空的话，如何通过Ajax发送php变量

Question

So i have 4 php variables named $description,$hscode,$from,$to I wants to send these variables through a AJAX request.My incomplete attempt is like this:

function searchFilter(page_num) {
  page_num = page_num?page_num:0;

    $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: 'getData.php',
       data: { page : +page_num, "desc" : "<?php  print $description ?>","hscode" : "<?php  print $hscode ?>","from" : "<?php  print $from ?>","to" : "<?php $to ?>" },

        beforeSend: function () {
            $('.container-fluid').waitMe({
                   effect : 'stretch',
                   bg : 'rgba(255,255,255,0.7)'
                });
             },
        success: function (html) {
            $('#posts_content').html(html);
            $('.container-fluid').waitMe("hide");
        }
    });
}

The problem is, PHP variables are dynamic means they are not always set sometime only $description is set, sometime only $hscode is set ,sometime $description and $hscode only set,There are 6 combination of this type.Please help in this situation how can i send this request.

First you can check your variables are set or not, if its set then on;y append those variables to ajax data. Try following code:

function searchFilter(page_num) {
    page_num = page_num?page_num:0;
    send_data = {};
    send_data.page = +page_num;
    <?php if (isset($description)): ?>
    send_data.desc = "<?php echo $description ?>";
    <?php endif; ?>
    <?php if (isset($hscode)): ?>
    send_data.hscode = "<?php echo $hscode ?>";
    <?php endif; ?>
    <?php if (isset($from)): ?>
    send_data.from = "<?php echo $from ?>";
    <?php endif; ?>
<?php if (isset($to)): ?>
send_data.to = "<?php echo $to ?>";
<?php endif; ?>

      $.ajax({
          type: 'POST',
          url: 'getData.php',
         data: send_data,

          beforeSend: function () {
              $('.container-fluid').waitMe({
                     effect : 'stretch',
                     bg : 'rgba(255,255,255,0.7)'
                  });
               },
          success: function (html) {
              $('#posts_content').html(html);
              $('.container-fluid').waitMe("hide");
          }
      });
}
