I was trying to send a data in array format with post function.

var url = 'proc.php';

var data = {'data':[1,2,3,4,5]};

$.post(url,data);

php got

$_POST['data'] = 5;

instead of

$_POST['data] = array(1,2,3,4,5);

I know that

var data = {'data[]':[1,2,3,4,5]};

works for my destination.

but i really don't want write that kind of code.

and sending a string like

"data=1&data=2&data=3&data=4&data=5"

to server is meaningless,right?
