Take the 2-minute tour ×  I have a list that has dispaly:none
but I want under certain conditions to make a child element of
the list (li) visible. Is it somehow possible?  share|improve
this question you can clone the elements and append to another
visible element, even a temporarily created one which can be
simply destroyed later using remove(). This is pretty much how
most tooltip plugins work –  charlietfl Dec 2 '12 at 13:22 add

container is invisible then visibility of its children is
irrelevant. So in your case you have to hide all li elements you
want to be non-visible, but list as such have to be visible.
