jquery ajax php post,Jquery AJAX post to PHP

OK i've got my json string built but i'm not sure what to do next??

$('#submit').live('click',function(){

var dataString = '[';

$('#items tr').not(':first').each(function(){

var index = $('#items tr').index(this);

var supp_short_code=$(this).closest('tr').find('.supp_short_code').text();

var project_ref=$(this).closest('tr').find('.project_ref').text();

var om_part_no=$(this).closest('tr').find('.om_part_no').text();

var description=$(this).closest('tr').find('.description').text();

var cost_of_items=$(this).closest('tr').find('.cost_of_items').text();

var cost_total=$(this).closest('tr').find('.cost_total').text();

dataString += '{"row":"' + index + '", "supp_short_code":"' + supp_short_code + '", "project_ref":"' + project_ref + '", "om_part_no":"' + om_part_no + '", "description":"' + description + '", "cost_of_items":"' + cost_of_items + '", "cost_total_td":"' + cost_total + '"}';

});

dataString += ']';

$.ajax

({

type: "POST",

url: "order.php",

data: dataString,

cache: false,

success: function()

{

alert("Order Submitted");

}

});

});

In my php file i was attempting to write the dataString to a text file so i could see its coming through ok but nothing was in the text file!? Am i doing something wrong client side or PHP side, my php code:

$stringData = $_POST['dataString'];

$myFile = "testFile.txt";

$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");

fwrite($fh, $stringData);

fclose($fh);
