How to make post use contentType application json in jquery

0 votes

How can I make $.post() send contentType=application/json? I already have a large number of $.post() functions, so I don't want to change to $.ajax() because it would take too much time

If I try

$.post(url, data, function(), "json") 

It still has contentType=application/x-www-form-urlencoded. So what exactly does the "json" param do if it does not change the contenttype to json?

If I try

$.ajaxSetup({
  contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8"
});

That works but affects every single $.get and $.post that I have and causes some to break.

So is there some way that I can change the behavior of $.post() to send contentType=application/json?

Hii,

Try this:

$.ajax({
  url:url,
  type:"POST",
  data:data,
  contentType:"application/json; charset=utf-8",
  dataType:"json",
  success: function(){
    ...
  }
})
