I have a button which causes a postback and also calls the javascript function hideInsert() which looks something like this:

function hideInsert() {

    $('.hide').hide();

        alert(hide);

    }

All it does is hiding tablerows marked with .hide. This works as intended but since the postback occurs, everything gets reset.

Is there anyway I can click the button to trigger the postback and then run the function, after the postback has occurred?

I have been looking at this http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/z9h4dk8y.aspx but with no success.

I would then need to press another button which would trigger the showInsert() function, which would need a similar function.
