After getting a page's content from an AJAX request I can select tag element but cannot select body element

Question

I got an html page through an AJAX request

$.ajax({
    async: true,
    method: \'GET\',
    url: linkPage,
    // cache: true,
    success: function (data) {
          


        

Answer 1

The following jQuery Won't work:

$(data).find('sustainable');

as the divs are top level elements and data isn't an element but a string, to make it work you need to use .filter

$(data).filter('sustainable.wrap');
