JQuery Grab Element That's Loaded Dynamically

I have a div that’s loaded dynamically

<div id="box"></div>

I’m trying to grab the div using jQuery and add text to it

$("#box").text("Hello World");

But I’m unable to do so. A delegation issue I assume. Any solutions?

    Update Solution

    I was loading the <div> using the jQuery load() method. I decided to place the $("#box").text("Hello World"); in the callback function and it worked

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title></title>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <link href="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.min.css" rel="stylesheet">

    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.min.js"></script>
    <link href="design.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body>
    <div id="box"></div>
    <script>
        $("#box").text("Hello World");

</html>
