title: Use appendTo to Move Elements with jQuery
challengeType: 6
---

## Description
<section id='description'>
Now let's try moving elements from one <code>div</code> to another.
jQuery has a function called <code>appendTo()</code> that allows you to select HTML elements and append them to another element.
For example, if we wanted to move <code>target4</code> from our right well to our left well, we would use:
<code>$("#target4").appendTo("#left-well");</code>
Move your <code>target2</code> element from your <code>left-well</code> to your <code>right-well</code>.

## Tests

```yml
tests:
  - text: Your <code>target2</code> element should not be inside your <code>left-well</code>.
    testString: assert($("#left-well").children("#target2").length === 0, 'Your <code>target2</code> element should not be inside your <code>left-well</code>.');
  - text: Your <code>target2</code> element should be inside your <code>right-well</code>.
    testString: assert($("#right-well").children("#target2").length > 0, 'Your <code>target2</code> element should be inside your <code>right-well</code>.');
  - text: Only use jQuery to move these elements.
    testString: assert(!code.match(/class.*animated/g), 'Only use jQuery to move these elements.');
