Jquery Ajax not submitting to PHP page

I have the below codes but anytime I run it, the data is not sent to the PHP file.

Here is the ajax code:

$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "api/tired.php",
    data: { username: username },
    success: function (data) {
        $("#msg").html(data);
    },
});

Here is the php file:

if(isset($_POST['username'])) {
    echo $_POST['username'];
}
else {
    echo "hello bro";
}

Instead of displaying the username, it is displaying ‘hello bro’.

Can someone please help?

    The script is actually correct. I got to realize that my serviceworker.js file was overriding the referrer.

    So I had to reconfigure my serviceworker.js file and it worked perfectly fine.

    Thanks, everyone.

    Apparently it is difficult to understand with just that snippet on what you have done (or maybe I just don’t have a debugger’s eye). I just want to confirm, is that the only code that you have for sending the "username" to the outstream?

    What I recommend doing is:

    1. Check if the input has the data for username in it. If not then it makes sense why "Hello bro" is getting printed.

    2. Generally when I send data to frontend via outstream, it’s like:

       if(isset($_GET["userName"])) { 
   $someVariable = $_GET["userName"];
 }
 $paging= $someVariable;   //if its a list then getList($someVariable)
 echo $paging->toJson();

    3. Check again with the data by putting single inverted-s. Sometimes, I’ve seen even when the code is correct such small things F it up.
