Change src of img tag without knowing id or src of replacement

Question

I've found some similar questions but never exactly this one:

I want to change the src of my img tag

<div id="probe1pic"><img height="193" width="150" src=""/></div>

and I want to do so with my jquery code from my variable x

x = {word: "David", pic: "<img id='pic' src='images/stimuli/david.gif'/>", type: "probe", cat: "perp"}

and if I isolate the pic element with x.pic I get:

<img id='pic' src='images/stimuli/david.gif'/>

I thought about this to get the src element (unsuccessful):

x.pic.attr('src')

I probably need the id for of the img tag I want to get the attribute from which I do not know beforehand. I do not know the id nor the src beforehand, only my variable x with these elements, so I need to find a way to extract the src element from x (or the id at least).

Any ideas?

Answer 1

x.pic.src

$(x.pic).attr('src')
