How to maintain SEO while using JQuery to show hidden divs [closed]

Im working with jquery ui on many of my websites and I am concerned that any content that is in hidden divs that will be used for a dialog is not search engine friendly and I would like to find out if:

Is content in hidden divs searched/indexed by google?

What is the best practice for using jQuery UI dialogs/tabs or other hidden elements on a webpage? (to ensure the best results for SEO)
