Is it possible (if so, how) to use jQuery"s appendTo with $.Views?

Here are two ways I have tried and failed:





//fails

$( $.Views('//home/home.ejs', {data:data}) ).appendTo('#home');



//fails

$( '//home/home.ejs', {data:data} ).appendTo('#home');

I'm not familiar with $.Views but, try this:

$( $.Views('//home/home.ejs', {data:data}) ).appendTo($('#home'));

or this:

$( '//home/home.ejs', {data:data} ).appendTo($('#home'));

when you are calling appendTo, you have to pass a jQuery Selector as the parameter, not only the selector string...

I found the error. It should have been $.View and not $.Views. But the second way still won't work.

//works
$( $.View('//home/home.ejs', {data:data}) ).appendTo('#home');

//fails
$( '//home/home.ejs', {data:data} ).appendTo('#home');

JavascriptMVC overrides some of jQuery's base methods. One of them is .html, allowing to specify a path to a view instead of the inner html:

$("#home").html('//home/home.ejs', {data:data});

Now, if you want to append, the .append method is overridden with the same functionality:

$("#home").append('//home/home.ejs', {data:data});
