jQuery event to trigger action when a div is made visible

Question

I\'m using jQuery in my site and I would like to trigger certain actions when a certain div is made visible.

Is it possible to attach some sort of \"isvisible\" even

Answer 1

I had this same problem and created a jQuery plugin to solve it for our site.

Here is how you would use it based on your example:

$('#contentDiv').visibilityChanged(function(element, visible) {
    alert("do something");
});
