Question

Once I do $("#obj").load(url) is there a way to get the loaded url from #obj ?

Answer 1

That code will just load the contents of #obj in the DOM using the results of a call to url. jQuery will not store the url anywhere. But you can manually store the data and attach it to the dom object using data(). Like this:

$("#obj").load(url).data('url', url);

You can then later retrieve the url like this:

var url = $("#obj").data('url');

See http://api.jquery.com/data/ for details.
