jQuery UI Sortables 1.6rc2 appendTo
With UI version 1.5 I was able to specify an appendTo option when
creating a sortable. This would change where the helper was created
as opposed to being added to the sortable item's parent. It was very
useful for working around problems with the helper appearing behind
other objects, especially in IE. If you set the appendTo option to
'body' it would be at the end of the document and thus always appear
on top of everything.
In UI 1.6rc2 this option no longer works. Does anyone know of a way
to get this working again?
