How to separate jquery response from $.post?

jquery $.post:

$.post(
    'includes/studiesAjax/addTryb.php',
    {inputVL: inputVL},
    function(res){
        $("#container").html(res);
    }
);

response is long html code

I would like to extract data from the first line of response beetween <p> tag, separate it from response and assign to new variable. How to do it?

If you return json instead html you can do like this.

       $.post(
            'includes/studiesAjax/addTryb.php',
            {inputVL: inputVL},
            function(res){
                var data = JSON.parse(res);
                if(data && data.response1){
                    result = (data.response1);
                    console.log(result);
                }
                if(data && data.response2)
                    $("#container").html(data.response2);
            }
        );

You should transform the response to a jquery object and then you can act on as usual:

$.post(
            'includes/studiesAjax/addTryb.php',
            {inputVL: inputVL},
            function(res){
                var result = $(res).find('p:first').html();
                $("#container").html(result );
            }
        );

function(res){
    var newVar = $(res).find('p:first').html();
}
