Resend AJAX request with link?


Is there anyway to reload just the AJAX request, so that it updates the content pulled from the external site in the code below?




$(document).ready(function () {
var mySearch = $('input#id_search').quicksearch('#content table', { clearSearch: '#clearsearch', });
var container = $('#content');
function doAjax(url) {
if (url.match('^http')) {
$.getJSON("http://query.yahooapis.com/v1/public/yql?"+
"q=select%20*%20from%20html%20where%20url%3D%22"+
encodeURIComponent(url)+
"%22&format=xml'&callback=?",
function (data) {
if (data.results[0]) {
var fullResponse = $(filterData(data.results[0])),
justTable = fullResponse.find("table");
container.append(justTable);
mySearch.cache();
$('.loading').fadeOut();
} else {
var errormsg = '<p>Error: could not load the page.</p>';
container.html(errormsg);
}
});
} else {
$('#content').load(url);
}
}
function filterData(data) {
data = data.replace(/<?\/body[^>]*>/g, '');
data = data.replace(/[\r|\n]+/g, '');
data = data.replace(/<--[\S\s]*?-->/g, '');
data = data.replace(/<noscript[^>]*>[\S\s]*?<\/noscript>/g, '');
data = data.replace(/<script[^>]*>[\S\s]*?<\/script>/g, '');
data = data.replace(/<script.*\/>/, '');
data = data.replace(/<img[^>]*>/g, '');
return data;
}
doAjax('link');
});



Right now I have a button which reloads the entire page, but I just want to reload the AJAX request. Is this even possible?



Edit: I need to specify more. While it can easily call the AJAX again, can it also replace the info that is already there?
