How Do I select the title of the context? I am suppose to select it to change the title of the page.

var handler = function(context){
    document.title = //context's title
    ....
}

//sample context from ajax request
var context = '<!DOCTYPE html><html>\
            <head><title>Hello</title></head>\
            <body>\
            <a href="#">Click Here</a><p>This is my sentence.</p>\
            </body></html>';

.ajax{(
    ...
    success: function(data){
                 handler(data);
             }
});

EDIT: I forgot the doctype just incase it’s necessary. The context was from an AJAX Request.

    You can use regex to extract the title as well

    var matches = context.match(/<title>(.*?)<\/title>/);
var title = matches[1];

    Demo

    Just discovered a way to do this, the non-regex way

    title = $(context).filter("title");
console.log(title.html());

    Demo
