title: Can jQuery .load append instead of replace?
body: <p>I have a WordPress install and I'm trying to use jQuery to create a Load More effect. I'm having some trouble using the basic .load feature for page fragments. I don't mind using .get as I saw some threads here regarding that as a better solution.</p>
  
  <p>Here's my page URL structure and the contents:</p>
  
  <p>First Page: <code>http://example.com/page/1/</code></p>
  
  <p>The HTML:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div id="articles"&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Second Page: <code>http://example.com/page/2/</code></p>
  
  <p>The HTML:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;div id="articles"&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
    &lt;div class="story"&gt;blah blah blah&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have a link at the bottom of the page and I've tried doing the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>jQuery(#articles).load('http://example.com/page/2/ #articles');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Sadly, there are 2 issues. First the .load function grabs the <code>#articles div</code> and its contents from the second page and places it into the existing <code>#articles div</code>. That means, even if this were to work, there would be recursive divs within divs resulting from each click. It's just messy.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone help me with the command to simply append the <code>.story classes</code> from the second page into the <code>#articles div</code> on the first page? I can figure out the logistics of automating it with variables, loops, and PHP for WordPress after. Just need some assitance with the proper jQuery script.</p>
  
  <p>P.S. Bonus Question: If anyone knows whether jQuery .load/.get will harm pageviews, which is important for those with advertising-based revenue, please let me know! If each .load/.get counts as another hit for Google Analytics, we're good!</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
