<ul id="notDiv">
<li><b></b></li>
<li><b></b></li>
<li><b></b></li>
<li><b></b><span id="moving">I am moving</span></li>
<li><b></b></li>
</ul>
If i am inserting into any <li>, regardless where my <span#moving> is
in (ie. it can be in the third <li>, fifth <li> etc)
var idx = 2; //place with other numbers
$("#moving").insertAfter($("#moving").parent('#notDiv').find("li:nth-
child("+idx+") b");
If i am inserting after the previous <li>, regardless where my
<span#moving> is in (ie. it can be in the third <li>, fifth <li> etc)
Does not account for first-child.
$("#moving").insertAfter($("#moving").parent('li').prev().find('b'));
Code is not tested.
