How do you detect when an HTML DOM object has come into existence, that is dynamically loaded?

I know what id the element will have, but I don't know when the item will come into existence, i want to empty it and insert something else

This is for a Chrome extension content script.

Have you tried using a callback after creating this object ? – tektiv May 31 '16 at 14:30
It's for a chrome extension, I don't control the other javascipts. Sorry will add that to the question – cruklukukklu May 31 '16 at 14:30
How are you "dynamically loading" it? – Liam May 31 '16 at 14:31
Check the duplicate: you are looking to bind an event to modification of the DOM. – Chris Baker May 31 '16 at 14:31
