Howdo I get the current element within $.ajax's success function?

Howdo I get the current element within $.ajax's success function?

Hi all,

I'm following the jquery official guide on developing plugins and I run into this situation where I need to retrieve the data associated with the current element and I don't know how do that. I will post a shortened and simplified version of my code below, hopefully some experts out there can shed some light on me

I need to access the current element $this inside my success function which is defined in var opts, however this seems to be impossible. I want to at least try to get which element is being clicked on
  1. var opts = {
                ajax:{
                    url: 'http://www.bestofferbuy.com/contact_us.html',
                    data: {ajax_return_blocks:'rb_contact_us'},
                    success: function(data, textStatus, jqXHR){
                        // i need to access $this here
                        // if not possible, at least i want to know which element is being clicked on, but $(this) here seems to return the jquery ajax object
                    }
                }
            };

    $("a").each(function(){
                $this = $(this);
                 $this.bind("click", function(e){
                      if( (!$.browser.msie && e.button == 0) || ($.browser.msie && e.button == 0)) {              
                    $.ajax(opts.ajax);
                    e.preventDefault();
                }
            });
    })
