Change

 $( "body" ).droppable({

to:

 $( "#droppable" ).droppable({

Here is the jsFiddle

UPDATE

You almost had it, the problem was that your body didn't have a height, which was identified by giving it a css border. Once a height was set using body{height:200px;} then it worked.

Update your code from

$("body").droppable

to 

$("#droppable").droppable...

You can check the same at http://jsfiddle.net/anubhavranjan/yEvsY/
