Question

I have an element that is resizable thanks to:

$("#myelement").resizable();

If I remove the element from the DOM using $("#myelement").remove()

then re-add it, the resizable effect does not work anymore. I have to reinitialize it. Is there a way to keep it and not have to reinitialize it?

Thanks

Use jQuery’s .detach() instead of remove()

The detach() method is the same as remove(), except that .detach() keeps all jQuery data associated with the removed elements.
