Use an interval and constantly poll that element until it is found...
var tries = 0;
(function(selector) {
var elem = $(selector)[0];
if (!elem && tries < 10) { // try max 10 times to find element...
setTimeout(function() {
arguments.callee(arguments);
}, 100);
tries++;
} else if (elem) {
// do something with elem
}
})('#your-elem');
Just an idea, untested and could possibly be optimized (not sure about
arguments.callee there).
Or simply include your script after the element.
