.append-Problems

.append-Problems

OK, so I want to add the elements with class "selected" to a div with class "zusammenfassung".
This code works:

$(".abschicken").click(function() {
      $("#ServicePortal ul li").each(function(){
           if ($(this).hasClass("selected")) {
$('.zusammenfassung').append(this);
      }
          });
    });

except, it deletes the original divs with the class "selected". Is this normal with the append-function? And what can I do about it?

Thanks for any help.
