Answer 1

here u can't for loop.

var demo;
$('li.type').fadeOut(300, function() {
     demo = $(this).detach();
});

$('#replace').click(function() {
   $("ul#foo").append(demo);
});

Answer 2

The question is: where on the page do you want to put the element back? If, for example, all the li elements go back inside <ul id="foo"></ul> you might use something like this:

var items = [];
$('li.type').fadeOut(300, function() {
     items.push( $(this).detach() );
});

$('#replace').click(function() {
    for(var i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
        $("ul#foo").append(items[i]);
    }
    items = [];
});
