Question

I’m using jQuery. Say I perform some searches using:

var acronyms=["fubar","snafu","gnu"];

$.each(acronyms, function(index, element){
  $.ajax({
    url: "https://www.domain.com/search?q=" + element,
    success: function() {
    }
  });
});​

Is there anyway for me to save the contents of the resulting page such that I can manipulate the data afterwards. Either the entire page content or page content plus html would be acceptable.

Answer 1

You can retrieve the HTML of each page, and then dissect it and append it, and do as you please with it.

var acronyms = ["fubar","snafu","gnu"];

$.each(acronyms, function(index, element) {
    $.ajax({
        url: "https://www.domain.com/search?q=" + element,
        dataType: "html",
        success: function(html) {
            var $container = $("#container", html); // look for a specific element in the returned HTML
            $("body").append($container);
        }
    });
});​
