Trigger a drop when a draggable is moved outside a droppable

Question

When the dragged <li> is out of the droppable #div1, how can I force the dragged <li> to drop?

$("li").draggable();

$("#div1").droppable({  
    tolerance:'pointer',
    drop:function (event,ui) {
        alert("dropped")
    },
    out:function (event,ui){
        //if out then drop the li
    }               
});

As suggested here
it is best to create a function of whatever it is you want to do when a li is dropped and you just call that function.
