If you're making an ajax call, say using $.post, jQuery will automatically encode the data before it hits the PHP script you called. The size, scope, and complexity of the object doesn't matter.

Find a way to serialize the array - JSON or something similar. It provides a format to convert objects and arrays to plain text and vice versa.
