Moving a div into another div

Question

i have 2 main div:

<div id="minidiv1">a</div>
<div id="minidiv2">b</div>
   </div>
   <div id="div2"></div>

I want move the minidiv1 into the div2 with jquery

how can i do?

Answer 1

You can simply append it to the div2, and it will change its location in the DOM:

$('#minidiv1').appendTo('#div2'); 
// or
$('#div2').append('#minidiv1');

The difference of the above two lines is what is returned, appendTo returns the #minidiv element, append will return the #div2 element.

Use the one you find most useful if you want to make more actions (by chaining).

Answer 2

$('#minidiv1').appendTo('#div2');

or

$('#div2').append($('#minidiv1'));

Answer 3

$("#minidiv1").appendTo("#div2")
