如何通过Ajax发送HTML和Javascript

Question

I want to retrieve HTML and Javascript from the same page using AJAX calls. However, I'm not sure what the best, cleanest, and safest way to do this is. I want my Javascript to edit an already defined object on the client. So far, my idea is:

Client-side script executed on some event:

getMoreStuff = function () {
  $.ajax({
    url: '/someRoute',
    success: function (data) {
      $data = $(data);
      $things = $data.find('#things');
      $('#content').append($things);
      // Execute the script
    }
  })
}

Body of AJAX request:

<div id="things">
  <div class="post">...</div>
  <div class="post">...</div>
  <div class="post">...</div>
  <div class="post">...</div>
  <div class="post">...</div>
</div>
<script>
  (function() {
    window.things || (window.things = []);
    things.concat([...some array...]);
  })();
</script>

I'm not sure if my jQuery code executes it when I define $data . Or should I send the script as a string and use eval?

Would this work?

$(document.body).append($data.find('script'));

See dataType here

"html": Returns HTML as plain text; included script tags are evaluated when inserted in the DOM.
