[jQuery] chainable ajax() - request

[jQuery] chainable ajax() - request


hello!
I want to use the ajax() - method without losing the actual clicked
object. do you have a solution for my problem?
To give an example:
------------------------------------
$("a").click(function(){
// now I have the possibility to use load, but I need the ajax -
method, because I don't want to add anything into the clicked object,
I want to load a script...
$(this).load("ajax.php", {var = lala} , function(){...}); // ... with
this method I could get "this"
/*
$.ajax({
            type:         "POST",
            url:         "ajax.php",
            data:        "var=lala",
            dataType:     "script",
            success: function(msg){
            alert( this );
});
//with this method I lose "this", and can't access the clicked objects
what I'd need is
$("a").ajax(options);
});
------------------------------------
Do you understand my problem?
Thank you for your help,
