jQuery - how to access variable from outside of the form

Following example: 

var ClickedTab = $(this).attr("href").substring(1);

$('#loaderDiv').load(TrimedClickedTab + '.html', function() {

    if (ClickedTab == 'quick-form') {

         console.log(' Quick FOR<');

    }
});

Currently ClickedTab inside if statement will be undefined, how to access this variable from inside of the function withou changing the syntax?

One thing you could do is to use data() to save your info so that you can get it back later 

var ClickedTab = $(this).attr("href").substring(1);
//save your data to use it later
$('#yourform').data('ClickedTab', ClickedTab );

$('#loaderDiv').load(TrimedClickedTab + '.html', function() {

    if ($('#yourform').data('ClickedTab') == 'quick-form') {

         console.log(' Quick FOR<');

    }
});

But in your case you should be able to see it just as is as you can see from thois fiddle

So the error must be somewhere else
