javascript - Need to move the location of an appended view -

i have list gets sorted using absolute positioning. problem user clicks on li supposed open appended view, unfortunately needing abs pos. found js appended , tried changing from

this.$item.append(this.getel()); 

to

$('#mygrid').append(this.getel()); 

so no longer being opened in absolutely positioned this.$item. breaks functionality of rest of script.

is there way allow keep scope moved somewhere else in dom once appended. or there better way approach this?

i decided move element after added. not ideal might others dealing absolute positioned elements children of absolute positioned elements

$(".og-expander").appendto("#mygrid");
