How do I pull variables from a php page?

Hi,

I'm wondering how I can pull variables I load from a mysql database in a php page to my game? I can send the ajax request to save data but do not know how how to retrieve that data to load certain things in my project. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes I did, but it doesn't explain exactly how to retrieve variables from a php page and use them in your game. It explains how to call a page and load that page. I can save game information into my database with that method, but I want to pull data from my database by the users being logged in, and if data for that game has been saved it can be loaded into the game for that user from the data pulled from the database in which I put into variables. Does that make any sense at all. Just got off work and a bit tired. Maybe I'm missing something, I don't know.

For example I have:

$var1="value";

in my php page.

I want to get the value of $var1 into my game using the AJAX method.

I'm guessing I might just be missing something and just can't see clearly right now so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Then how would I go about doing a saved data feature without using the sessions or local storage?

I know, but how do you retrieve it from constructor 2 itself and use the variables in the game?

So basically I have to make a call for everything I want to load for example:

php page - level: 5

and it would be like var AJAX.level
... it will retrieve 5 and I can load the level from that if I put it into a global variable?

Sorry, just trying to get my head around it. I know how AJAX and php work but for some reason I just can't get this through my head. This is the only thing I'm having a problem with in this program.
