jQuery: How to call function when element shows

I want to call a function when a div shows (after show).

Does anybody knows how could I do this? I try to use something like that:

$(#someDiv).bind(\

The following code (adapted from http://maximeparmentier.com/2012/11/06/bind-show-hide-events-with-jquery/) will enable you to use $('#someDiv').on('show', someFunc);.

(function ($) {
  $.each(['show', 'hide'], function (i, ev) {
    var el = $.fn[ev];
    $.fn[ev] = function () {
      this.trigger(ev);
      el.apply(this, arguments);
      return el;
    };
  });
})(jQuery);
