I am making my first jquery plugin ( advance sitemap with Drag,Drop, Sort ) for my own cms system.

Plugin is 95% finished but with one bug which makes me crazy. My plugin supports how many levels can user add pages (example 3 level menu, 5 level menu ...).

Problem:

I am dragging element(ui.draggable) with below code and appending to other LI when drop. I can count parents (levels ul li) where i drop.

I can not count how many levels (ul li) has draggable element ( ui.draggable ), i tryed everything i know about jquery, please help me out.

ui.draggable:

I count parent levels with this code ( Parent levels must be counted where i drop ) :

1. var ParentCount = $(li).parents('li#page > ul').length;

I tryed counting max levels with:

1. ui.draggable.children('li > ul')
   ui.draggable.find('li > ul')
