Question

In jQuery, I’m hiding my elements using .hide();.

Is there an evert handler that is fired when I hide something? You see, I have a bunch of elements in my code, and I’m hiding them or showing them (using jQuery) a bunch of times. To keep things in check, in an efficient way, I would love to use an event handler for .hide()

Could someone point me in the right direction for this?

Many Thanks!

You can use a callback function

$('#element').hide('slow', hideCallback);

$('#element').show('slow', showCallback);

function hideCallback()
{
    // You can do your stuff here
}

function showCallback()
{
    // You can do your stuff here
}
