You could `parseInt()` it first – Taplar May 23 '18 at 19:07 — Taplar, May 23 '18 at 19:07

The problem is that '-2000px' is a string, and not a number. You cannot use > and < on strings in this way.

Try parsing $div.css as an integer, and writing the pixels as an integer (without the ''):

if ( parseInt( $div.css('marginLeft') ) > -2000 ){

You do not need to include an `else` or an `else if`. All you need is `if(...){ ... }` – RobertAKARobin May 23 '18 at 19:34
