hide div when empty - the good div call

I am having trouble calling the right div to hide.

Underneath is my code and I would like to hide li#spect1 if #block1 is empty. If I call, for example, the above div #tab1 it will hide, but #block1 will not.

Can anybody help me please?

<script type="text/javascript"> 
$j(function() {
if ($j("div#block1").html() == "") {
$j("li#spect1").hide();}
});
</script>

<div class="content_container">
<ul class="tabs">
<li id="spect1"><a href="#tab1">Title of tab</a></li>
</ul>
<div class="tab_container">

<div id="tab1">
<div id="block1"></div><!--if div is empy = hide-->
</div>

</div><!--end tab_container-->
</div><!--end content_container-->

EDIT

$J is for calling jQuery or simple $ on the Magento platform.

When div#block1 is empty , hide li element #spect1.

It works when I put #tab1 instead of #block1 is empty, but I am searching a way to call div#block1. This won't work and I dont know why.

Hide the tab1 div too : 

<script type="text/javascript"> 
$j(function() {
if ($j("div#block1").html() == "") {
$j("li#spect1").hide();
$j("#tab1").hide();
}
});
</script>

You need to hide the actual block as well: 

<script type="text/javascript"> 
$j(function() {
  if ($j("div#block1").html() == "") {
    $j("div#block1").hide();
    $j("li#spect1").hide();
  }
});
</script>
