Answer 1

Try this variation:

$(".tr_clone_add").live('click', CloneRow);

function CloneRow()
{
    $(this).closest('.tr_clone').clone().insertAfter(".tr_clone:last");
}

Answer 2

Is very simple to clone the last row with jquery pressing a button:

Your Table HTML:

<table id="tableExample">
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>ID</th>
            <th>Header 1</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td>1</td>
            <td>Line 1</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
    <tfoot>
        <tr>
            <td colspan="2"><button type="button" id="addRowButton">Add row</button></td>
        </tr>
    </tfoot>
</table>

JS:

$(document).on('click', '#addRowButton', function() {
    var table = $('#tableExample'),
        lastRow = table.find('tbody tr:last'),
        rowClone = lastRow.clone();

    table.find('tbody').append(rowClone);
});

Regards!

Your problem is that your insertAfter:

.insertAfter(".tr_clone")

inserts after every .tr_clone:

the matched set of elements will be inserted after the element(s) specified by this parameter.

You probably just want to use after on the row you're duplicating. And a little .find(':text').val('') will clear the cloned text inputs; something like this:

var $tr    = $(this).closest('.tr_clone');
var $clone = $tr.clone();
$clone.find(':text').val('');
$tr.after($clone);

Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ambiguous/LAECx/ or for a modern jQuery: http://jsfiddle.net/ambiguous/LAECx/3274/

I'm not sure which input should end up with the focus so I've left that alone.

Here you go:

$( table ).delegate( '.tr_clone_add', 'click', function () {
    var thisRow = $( this ).closest( 'tr' )[0];
    $( thisRow ).clone().insertAfter( thisRow ).find( 'input:text' ).val( '' );
});

Update: The new way of delegating events in jQuery is

$(table).on('click', '.tr_clone_add', function () { … });

Answer 5

Try this code, I used the following code for cloning and removing the cloned element, i have also used new class (newClass) which can be added automatically with the newly cloned html

for cloning..

 $(".tr_clone_add").live('click', function() {
    var $tr    = $(this).closest('.tr_clone');
    var newClass='newClass';
    var $clone = $tr.clone().addClass(newClass);
    $clone.find(':text').val('');
    $tr.after($clone);
});

for removing the clone element.

$(".tr_clone_remove").live('click', function() { //Once remove button is clicked
    $(".newClass:last").remove(); //Remove field html
    x--; //Decrement field counter
});

html is as followinng

<tr class="tr_clone">
                       <!-- <td>1</td>-->
                        <td><input type="text" class="span12"></td>
                        <td><input type="text" class="span12"></td>
                        <td><input type="text" class="span12"></td>
                        <td><input type="text" class="span12"></td>
                        <td><input type="text" class="span10" readonly>
                        <span><a href="javascript:void(0);" class="tr_clone_add" title="Add field"><span><i class="icon-plus-sign"></i></span></a> <a href="javascript:void(0);" class="tr_clone_remove" title="Remove field"><span style="color: #D63939;"><i class="icon-remove-sign"></i></span></a> </span> </td> </tr>

Answer 6

Try this.

HTML

<!-- Your table -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" id="table-data"> 
    <thead>
        <tr>
            <th>Name</th>
            <th>Location</th>
            <th>From</th>
            <th>To</th>
            <th>Add</th>
        </tr>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td><input type="text" autofocus placeholder="who" name="who" ></td>
            <td><input type="text" autofocus placeholder="location" name="location" ></td>
            <td><input type="text" placeholder="Start Date" name="datepicker_start" class="datepicker"></td>
            <td><input type="text" placeholder="End Date" name="datepicker_end" class="datepicker"></td>
            <td><input type="button" name="add" value="Add" class="tr_clone_add"></td>
        </tr>
    <tbody>
</table>

<!-- Model of new row -->
<table id="new-row-model" style="display: none"> 
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <td><input type="text" autofocus placeholder="who" name="who" ></td>
            <td><input type="text" autofocus placeholder="location" name="location" ></td>
            <td><input type="text" placeholder="Start Date" name="datepicker_start" class="datepicker"></td>
            <td><input type="text" placeholder="End Date" name="datepicker_end" class="datepicker"></td>
            <td><input type="button" name="add" value="Add" class="tr_clone_add"></td>
        </tr>
    <tbody>
</table>

Script

$("input.tr_clone_add").live('click', function(){
    var new_row = $("#new-row-model tbody").clone();
    $("#table-data tbody").append(new_row.html());
});
