As you can see by just echoing my text, I've lost a heck of alot of it. Could someone help me?

Answer 1

The easiest way to send your form and avoid encoding problems in jQuery is to use serialize.

In you ajax call:

data: $("form").serialize(),

Answer 2

You've got to escape your characters : your & character is interpreted as a delimiter for another key by the POST.

Try encodeURIComponent(string input); to escape those.

Example : encodeURIComponent($("input[name=foo"]").val().toString());

Answer 3

Don't send it as a string, send it as an object:

  dataObj = {
                    var1: "hello",
                    var2: 1
            };
$.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: YOUR_SERVER_URL,
            data: dataObj,
            success: function(data) {
}
});

Answer 4

After word Wheels in url param "note" you have "&" which define new params
