How to pass long String variable from JavaScript to PHP?

So I need to pass long string variable from JavaScript to PHP, but the URL shows me that its too long. I use this method:

    function Fillup(id){
     var answer = $('.nicEdit-main').html();
     $.get('submit.php?id='+id+'&answer='+answer,
        function(data){
        $('.answer-div').html(data);
     });
    };

And grab them at the PHP file:

    $id = $_GET['id'];
    $answer = $_GET['answer'];

But there are times that answer variable are long html codes. For example I created textarea with text editor options, witch you can see is .nicEdit-main and if there is picture added, then my variable is too long to be passed trough URL. Can someone please suggest me a better method?

You can try this:

function Fillup(id){
    var answer = $('.nicEdit-main').html();

    $.post('submit.php',
        {
            id: id,
            answer: answer
        },
        function(data) {
            $('.answer-div').html(data);
        }
    });
};

And in PHP side :

$id = $_POST['id'];
$answer = $_POST['answer'];
