Question

I am using $.post to load some js code from a MYSQL database. How do I execute it?

Answer 1

$.eval = function(str) {
    eval(str);
}

$.fn.eval = function(str) {
    eval(this.selector);
}

$.post(url, function(data) {
    $.eval(data);
    //$(data).eval();
});

Jokes aside. You can use eval to run a snippet of JavaScript. I’m sure everyone else will tell you why eval is evil.

Ideally though what your doing is bad. There’s a far better way to solve your problem that doesn’t involve grabbing code from a database.
