<h1>Dynamic Sortables</h1>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>
This To Do list is a good example of using Sortables in lists which have items dynamically added. Notice that on line 47 of the JavaScript file, we make a call to sort.addItems(). It is critical that we call this method on our Sortables object every time we add a new item to the list.
</p>

<input type="text" id="newTask" />
<input type="submit" value="Add Task" />
