I am appending elements/ texts into the body part of the html using jQuery. And I am using appendTo method to append the content into the div but it is always append at the last not where I want to drop it .
Please let me know which method I can use to achieve that.
I am implementing a mail body functionality where I can write anything and drop any text anywhere in between that .
Please suggest.
JQuery version 3+
Code snippet:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="draggable">
<p>Name</p>
<p>Lastname</p>
<p>Age</p>
<p>City</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-8">
<h4>Droppable Area</h4>
<div id="contentarea" contenteditable="true" style="width:100%; height: 200px">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$( ".draggable" ).draggable({
revert: "invalid",
stack: ".draggable",
appendTo: 'body',
//scroll: false,
helper: 'clone',
start: function(e, ui)
{
$(ui.helper).addClass("ui_atdrag_custom_class");
},
stop: function(e, ui)
{
$(ui.helper).removeClass("ui_atdrag_custom_class");
},
});
$( "#contentarea" ).droppable({
accept: ".draggable",
tolerance: "touch",
drop: function( event, ui ) {
var droppable = $(this);
var draggable = ui.draggable;
draggable.clone().appendTo(droppable);
//$(this).find("p").addClass( "ui_dropped_content");
}
});
});
Any fiddle would be more helpful.but should be drop wherever I want to drop the text / link .
