title: Trying to select a 'body' tag from html that is returned by get() request
body: <p>I'm making an <a href="http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.get/" rel="nofollow">ajax get call</a> that returns me contents of html page. I'm trying to select contents of the <code>body</code> tag but my selector returns an empty jquery object. </p>
  
  <pre><code>$.get(filename, function(data) {
      console.log($("body", data));
  })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>where <code>data</code> is contents of html file. </p>
