+### CSS messing up on drag?
+
+Upon sorting, `react-sortable-hoc` creates a clone of the element you are sorting (the _sortable-helper_) and appends it to the end of the `<body>` tag. The original element will still be in-place to preserve its position in the DOM until the end of the drag (with inline-styling to make it invisible). If the _sortable-helper_ gets messed up from a CSS standpoint, consider that maybe your selectors to the draggable item are dependent on a parent element which isn't present anymore (again, since the _sortable-helper_ is at the end of the `<body>`).
