How do you integrate jQuery plugins with AJAX?

Senior JQuery
Quick Answer Plugins + AJAX: in the plugin, make AJAX calls and render results into the plugin's container. Expose a refresh(url) method. Handle loading states internally (show spinner, disable interaction). On AJAX success, destroy old sub-elements properly before inserting new content to avoid memory leaks. Namespace AJAX abort tokens to the plugin instance.

Answer

Initialize plugins after AJAX loads using .done() or .ajaxComplete().
Rebind or refresh plugin instances.
Prevents broken interactions on dynamic pages.
