I have a succeed ajax request that can download the whole html contents, now I only need to get a div tag which contains id "data-today".

Take a look at this SOq:

Extracting Ajax return data in jQuery

Something along these lines:

success: function(data) {
   //create jquery object from the response html
   var $response=$(data);
   //query the jq object for the values
   var dataToday = $response.find('#data-today').text();
}

$('#data-today').html() if you want all the html // this out puts

if you want text inside it

$('#data-today').text() // this gives hello how are you

.text() gives the text in between html

<div> hello how are you </div>

@user my answer will work if you append the results to dom already. icyrock answer will get you that div results from the response.
