You probably got your answer by now. Think this way. JSON string is like any other string. The transport mechanism does not have to know weather it is json or text or number or binary or otherwise. With that said, you can use forms with get or post(knowing the advantages drawback of each will help you select the right mechanism) and simply posting it to your php page. In your php page, read the request parameters as if they were any other parameters.
As a matter of fact you can even append the json string as part of your target page url with a variable name and expect the json string (with a hyperlink click) to reach its destination as expected. Good luck!
