Question

I am invoking an ajax call from jquery like this:

$.ajax({
  type: 'GET',
  url: 'edit.htm',
  success: function(data){
    container.html(data);
  },
});

The data recevied from the ajax call contains script tags that reference other JS files, for ex: angularjs. Wehn I look at firebug I see that the JS files are downloaded but they do not appear in the Script tab one could debug it.

The JS files are downloaded but not executed.

How do I get around this?

The above ajax call and the container element are present in a html file called info.htm.

And edit.htm(the data fetched from the ajax call) has script tags and other html data.

Thanks.
P.S: If it helps: I can see the JS files being downloaded in the firebug ‘Console’ tab, however, I cant see them listed in the firebug ‘Script’ tab.

Answer 1

try with jQuery.getScript("url") for more details refer this
It makes ajax call implicitly.

or try something like :

$.ajax({
  type: 'GET',
  url: 'edit.htm',
  success: function(data){
    $(data).appendTo(container);
  },
});
