How can jQuery load some html and append it to the <body> element?

Asked 2009-09-06T13:10:09.670

I tried the following:

$.load("Views/chatBox.html").appendTo('body')

Console Output:

TypeError: $.load is not a function

EDIT: The answer should only be one line of code; that's enough, I think.

jquery load

An alternative solution:

jQuery('#AppendToMe').append( jQuery('<div>').load(...) );

This will append whatever you load into the #AppendToMe element.
