how to grab and display an element with specified class

after a form is submitted I have a success function:

success: function(data) { ....

what i want to do is check to see if data contains a div with a specified class.
if yes then display that element and if no then continue on as normal.

thanks

will help you to get the controls with specific css name
$(".classname")

Take a look into the sample
