Description
It is common task to get html from server and to work with it in its own context. I have test.html file with this content:
<html>
<head>
<title>
Test page
</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>
Some information
</div>
</body>
</html>
So after trying
$.get("test.html",function(data){alert($(data).find("div");})
i found an error. Here is more info about:
Test examples:
var s1 = '<html><head><title>info</title></head><body><div>info</div></body></html>';
alert($(s1).find('div')); // [object Object]
var s2 = '<html>\n<head><title>info</title></head><body><div>info</div></body></html>';
alert($(s2).find('div')); // [error]
Solution:
function jquery_from_html(data) {
return $("<moo/>").append(data);
}
Example of usage:
$.get(
"test.html",
{},
function(data){
d = $("div#system", jquery_from_html(s));
alert(d.text());
},
"html"
)
Found in jquery source in load function:
// Create a dummy div to hold the results
jQuery("<div/>")
