Testing if something is hidden with jQuery

In jQuery, suppose you have an element of some kind that you're hiding and showing, using .hide(), .show() or .toggle(). How do you test to see if that element is currently hidden or visible on the screen?

Answer 1

Try

$("some-selector").is(':hidden'); 

or

$("some-selector").is(':visible');   

Here are the docs for the :visible and the :hidden selectors.
