Load data from the server and place the returned HTML into the matched element.

this one seems simple but very useful

$( "#result" ).load( "ajax/test.html" );

this one will load the content of test.html into the div with the id result

if you want to load the data and then do something after this one is for you

$( "#result" ).load( "ajax/test.html", function() {
  alert( "Load was performed." );
});
