Json Build Problem

[FabrizioFubelli]

Expected behavior

In the README it's written that you can build a nestable, using a json.
After I filled up the nestable using a json, the default functions don't work.

For example, if I call

$('#nestable3').nestable('serialize')

it should returns a serielized object containing the items.

Actual behavior

$('#nestable3').nestable('serialize')

returns an empty array

Steps to reproduce the behavior

I used this format to build a nestable with json:

<div class="dd" id="nestable3">
    <ol class='dd-list dd3-list'>
        <div id="dd-empty-placeholder"></div>
    </ol>
</div>

After I filled up the nestable with a Json (following the "README" steps), I called the $('#nestable3').nestable('serialize') function, but it doesn't works.

I understood that the problem is in the "README.md" file, because the default functions in the nestable script, don't provide the <div> </div> tag; so the correct code to write in the "README.md" it's the following:

<div class="dd" id="nestable3">
    <ol class='dd-list dd3-list' id="dd-empty-placeholder">
    </ol>
</div>

instead of:

<div class="dd" id="nestable3">
    <ol class='dd-list dd3-list'>
        <div id="dd-empty-placeholder"></div>
    </ol>
</div>

Big thanks for this solution. I had the same problem here. It would be great, if the readme would be updated.
