You have to look at this. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1917576/how-to-pass-javascript-variables-to-php — Kannan Rajendran, Dec 21 '13 at 07:12
Are you you asking how to retrieve POST data IN php, or are you asking how to retrieve POST data from a jQuery $ajax call? Also, what you've written there isn't POST at all -- it's GET. — brandonscript, Dec 21 '13 at 07:14
Data *returned* by Ajax will be returned to the browser. PHP doesn't run at the browser end. — Quentin, Dec 21 '13 at 07:16
You've overridden the processing of the HTTP response to treat it as JSONP, but your PHP output anything close to being JSONP. — Quentin, Dec 21 '13 at 07:17

I would use PHP to make the request and store the result in an array, since you need to use the result in php

 $acToken='your value';

 $result = file_get_content('https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo?access_token='.$acToken);

 echo '<pre>';
 print_r($result);
 echo '<pre>';

make sure to assing a value to $acToken;

Same here, this has nothing to do with the original question? OP needs to clarify before we get any answers – brandonscript Dec 21 '13 at 07:18
the downvote wasn't me – Emilio Gort Dec 21 '13 at 07:20
lol not saying it was, only that the question is totally out of wack and unanswerable. – brandonscript Dec 21 '13 at 07:21
I think I address him how to get the values for php in the right direction......and you'r right – Emilio Gort Dec 21 '13 at 07:22

Sounds like common sense to me. If he needs to use the result in php, the way I see it, he can send another request or just make the initial request from php which is more efficient. – Emmanuel John Dec 21 '13 at 07:25

In your javascript, create ajax post request to your php url:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "some.php",
    data: { uName: "John", imgHolder: "img" }
})
.done(function( msg ) {
    alert( "Data Saved: " + msg );
});

For more information, you can read jQuery AJAX documentation
