I want to move an existing div which is inside another one to the body of HTML.
For example i have:

<body><div1><div2>blah</div2></div1></body>

I would like it to make:

<body><div1></div1><div2>blah</div2></body>

Any suggestions?

Give your divs some IDs:

<body>
    <div id="one">
        <div id="two">
        </div>
    </div>
</body>

Then use appendTo

$('#two').appendTo('body');
