Colorbox with .post() request

I am trying to use open a colorbox after a jquery .post(); request, loading the page that I posted to but I have an issue. I am opening a new instance of the page, which did not receive the posted data.

$.post( "/shop/checkout.php", { shipping: shipping },
  function(data) {
    $.colorbox({top: 50,scrolling:false,preloading:false,href:"/shop/checkout.php"});
  }
);

I have used firebug, and the post is successful with the correct data. However, when I load checkout.php within the colorbox, it is an instance of checkout.php that did not receive the data.

You already have the data in post callback, just provide the data to colorbox using html option. You don't have to set href option.

$.post( "/shop/checkout.php", { shipping: shipping },
  function(data) {
     $.colorbox({ 
         top: 50,
         scrolling: false,
         preloading: false,
         html: data
     });
  }
);
