There are some jQuery methods such as

append()
appendTo()
prepend()

I'm trying to implement a kind of "semi" responsive design. This means that a different location (top, left) and dimension (width, height) can be set for objects when a form is viewed on a mobile device. This approach can always be refined by adding media queries later.

E.g. the user form could look like this when opened on a mobile phone:
user_mobile_form.jpg

Hi,
the websites that have the mobile version, actually have 2 different sites, one is accessed from the PC browser, the other from mobile devices, using the database together.
If nuBuilderMobile could be implemented, it should be focused on mobile devices, with objects, forms, adapted for viewing on mobile devices.
Those who need the website version for mobile devices must follow the same steps and create the mobile version, which should help the user to a quick query and simplified viewing of information.

Have to disagree with you on that gerese, separate mobile sites were a thing 10 years ago but now the vast majority use responsive design to alter the layout (including showing/hiding content) depending on the device.

Some sites will use agent détection to identify the browser type, mobile or desktop class, and add or remove content accordingly to provide a better user experience and faster download speed for mobile devices.

Even with “mobile” sites there is still a strong element of responsive design as there is a multitude of screen sizes/resolutions to cater for. It’s not as simple as mobile/desktop.
