And getting it in php using $settings=$_REQUEST['settings'] But using

                foreach(is_array($settings)  as $tag => $val) {

                    echo $combied_final[$tag]=$val;

                }

Does not seems to working in this case . I want ID and Visibility separate . How can i do that ?

To access it as an array, make:

$settings=json_decode($_REQUEST['settings'], true);

and you better use $_GET, otherwise in $_REQUEST you will have also cookies.

@user1001176 "Didn't work", what do you mean? What did it return?

it works perfectly for me. Maybe you have some prepended file that adds slashes to $_REQUEST? then you must call stripslashes on $_REQUEST['settings']

First use json_decode to decode the values:

$list = json_decode($_REQUEST['settings']);
foreach($list as $item) {
    print $item->ID . $item->visibility;
}
