I'm adding html into a div using append. I want to update my custom scrollbar

proper way of doing a callback after append for a different div?
I cannot simply chain this because it's a different div.
This is what I have but the callback paramater does not seem to work for
append - perhaps it's not a parameter at all?
<div id="parentDiv" class="scrollBar" >
<div id=" childDiv" class="appendedContentGoesHere"></div>
</div>
$("#childDiv").append('mygreatHTML',function(){$("#parentDiv").updateScrollBar()})
Much appreciated!
You don't need a callback, such operations happen one after the other in
JavaScript:
$("#childDiv").append('mygreatHTML');
$("#parentDiv").updateScrollBar();
You could of course still make a chain:
$("#childDiv").append('mygreatHTML').parent().updateScrollBar();
That frees you from having to use another hardcoded id...
