Find if variable is divisible by 2

Use modulus:

// Will evaluate to true if the variable is divisible by 2
variable % 2 === 0  

Seriously, there's no jQuery plugin for odd/even checks?

Well, not anymore - releasing "Oven" a jQuery plugin under the MIT license to test if a given number is Odd/Even.

(function() {
    /*
     * isEven(n)
     * @args number n
     * @return boolean returns whether the given number is even
     */
    jQuery.isEven = function(number) {
        return number % 2 == 0;
    };

    /* isOdd(n)
     * @args number n
     * @return boolean returns whether the given number is odd
     */
    jQuery.isOdd = function(number) {
        return !jQuery.isEven(number);
    };
})();​
