jquery append appendto

Solution 1

That's because append() returns the original jQuery object (the one containing the <body> element), not a new one containing the appended content.

You can use appendTo() instead:

$('<div id="object">').appendTo('body').html(html).css({
    'top': '200px',
    'left': '300px',
    'z-index': '10'
});

Solution 2

$('<div/>',{
  id: 'object'
}).appendTo('body')
  .html(html)
  .css({
     'top': '200px',
     'left': '300px',
     'z-index': '10'
});

    $('body').append('<div id="object"/>').html(html).css({'top':'200px','left':'300px','z-index':'10'});
  });
});
