Hey everyone. I've written this simple function that is supposed to load a portion of an XML file on mouseenter. It works fine when I specify the data source explicitly, shown below.

I have a number of '.invest-port-thumb' divs, each with a unique link.

The following code works fine—but it loads the whole XML file—and I only want a portion:

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.invest-port-thumb a').mouseenter(function() {
            $('#slider-name').load(this.href);
        });
    });

This code also works fine—loading only the 'cName' portion that I want it to load...Except that this code refers to one of the files, instead of the value of this.href.

$(document).ready(function() {

    $('.invest-port-thumb a').mouseenter(function() {
            $('#slider-name').load('port/atd.xml cName');
        });
    });

I guess what I'm saying, syntax wise—How can I combine this.href and the data matching cName?

Thanks for the help!
