I have an HTML page like so:
<html>
<body>
<div id='something'>
...
<script>
var x = 'hello world';
</script>
...
</div>
</body>
</html>
On another page, I am doing this:
$.ajax({
url: 'example.html',
type: 'GET',
success: function(data) {
$('#mydiv').html($(data).find('#something').html());
alert(x);
}
});
jQuery, however, is not executing the javascript in the first file, even though the documentation says it does. How can I make it do that?
EDIT: Unfortunately in the real world application I am working on I don't have control over what the "included" page has. We are on the same domain, but I can't modify the code that it outputs as it is a packaged product our IT department will not let us modify.
