I am building a Wordpress site. I am using Ajax to pull in content from another page to fill an empty div when a particular element is clicked. Each element has a different URL so I made the Url a variable. I need Ajax to only pull in a particular element from this URL. Instead it keep pulling in the entire page. I've tried using various methods to select the specific element, but I've hit a wall and need a little help.
(function($) {
function find_page_number( element ) {
return parseInt( element.html() );
}
$('.member-info').on('click', function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
page = find_page_number( $(this).clone() );
var memberSrc = $(this).attr('href');
$.ajax({
url: memberSrc,
type: 'get',
dataType:'html',
data: {
action: 'ajax_pagination',
query_vars: ajaxpagination.query_vars,
page: page
},
success: function( html ) {
$("#main").empty();
$('#main').append( html);
}
});
})
})(jQuery);</div>
You can filter the answer with jQuery:
$('#main').append( $(html).find('#main').html() );
