         mypostid : theId,//This is the get parameter the URL in the php file will see
         someotherParameter : 'HI'//Some other parameter to explain how this works
    }

    /*you are passing the above object here and the php script will run.  The php will as if the url was this 
     'path/to/my/script.php?mypostid=5369&someotherParameter=HI' */
