chaining appendTo method to animate is not working?

chaining appendTo to the animate is not working? Meaning the left margin never moves over to margin 0 from margin 600px?

    $(data).filter('.test1Div').appendTo("#tes1Section").animate({"left": + slideLeft},"slow");

I can see the data get inserted into the #test1Section because I manually move the test1Section div over..

For some reason you need to append the element after the animation is started, like so:

$(data).filter('.test1Div').animate({left: slideLeft},"slow").appendTo("#tes1Section");

Pay notice to how the animate function is written, and do as landons said, make sure you have your elements names correct.

Edit: Just noticed that you are writing "left margin", but you do know that you are currently animating the css "left" property, and not the css "marginLeft" property?

Looks like you're missing a "t" in appendTo('#tes*t*1Section'). Beyond that, make sure your test1Div has a position of relative or absolute.
