A function like this should help you

document.addEventListener("DOMNodeInserted", function(event){
  var element = event.target;
  if (element.tagName == 'li') {
     alert("li added");    
  }
});

Check Mutation events

FIDDLE DEMO

HTML

<div id="container" style="background-color:#e0d0a0; width:300px; height:100px;"></div>   
<button onclick="AddLiToContainer ();">Add a li node to the container!</button>

JAVASCRIPT

 function AddLiToContainer() {
     var newLi = document.createElement("li");
     var textNode = document.createTextNode("Hello World");
     newLi.appendChild(textNode);
     if (newLi.addEventListener) {
         newLi.addEventListener('DOMNodeInserted', OnNodeInserted, false);
     }

     var container = document.getElementById("container");
     container.appendChild(newLi);
 }

 function OnNodeInserted(event) {
     var Li = event.target;
     alert("The text node '" + Li.innerHTML + "' has been added to an element.");
 }
