Reload part of the page Jquery

Question

I have a table with a td that updates when i press a button .pauseDocker

When It's paused I'm reloading the page. Surely there's a smarter way to just refresh just part of the page in this case the table.

$(document).on('click','.pauseDocker' ,function(){
    var buttonClicked = $(this);
    var containerName = $(this).attr('name');

    $.ajax({
        type: 'post',
        url: '/container/pause',
        data: {containerName: containerName},
        success: function () {

            location.reload();
        },
        error: function() {

        }
    });
});

You can get the first parameter of the success callback and this will contain data from the response of your server. Use that to retrieve the changed data and update client side accordingly
