Beginner in AJAX help needed with POST - ajax

Question

I have the following script:
<script>
/* attach a submit handler to the form */
$("#Submitter<? echo $count; ?>").submit(function(event) {
/* stop form from submitting normally */
event.preventDefault();
/*clear result div*/
$("#result").html('');
/* get some values from elements on the page: */
var values = $(this).serialize();
/* Send the data using post and put the results in a div */
$.ajax({
url: "<? echo Configure::read('Burl') . $cat['sub_cat_url']; ?>",
type: "post",
data: values,
success: function(){
$("#prod_add").show();
$("#prod_add").delay(2500).animate({opacity: 0},5000);
},
error:function(){
alert("failure");
$("#result").html('there is error while submit');
}
});
});
</script>
which works, the form is posted. But how do I get access to the post variables on the same page without refreshing? Are they stored in an JavaScript array or something?
this is my form:
<form method="post" id="Submitter<? echo $count; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="CartAdd" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="Productcode" value="<? echo $row['Titel']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="Description" value="<? echo $row['Omschrijving']; ?>">
<input type="hidden" name="Tumbnail" value="<? echo $row['Afbeelding']; ?>">
<input type="SUBMIT" value="Order Now" class="order_button">

I still don't understand whats the question is, but i will give it a try:
But how do I get access to the post variables on the same page without refreshing?
There is no concept like POST variables client side so i guess you mean the value of the form fields you post to the server?
Just access them by id/name:
var valueOfTumbnail = $('input[name="Tumbnail"]).val();
If you want to access the whole data which gets posted use form.serialize() like in your method:
var serializedData = $("form").serialize();
But i don't think that this is what you want.
EDIT:
Try to execute the code when the document was loaded and processed by the browser:
$(document).ready(function() {
// here your code...
});
