[jQuery] Cloning Fieldsets

[dickiedyce]

Err hello?

Managed to get it working ... kind of.... but out of interest wanted
to know if I was missing some jQuery idioms within the .each()
function?

Any thoughts gratefully received.

function addSubform(childtype) {
  subformCount++;
  var thisType = childtype;
  var mysubform = $('#'+childtype
+'_tmpl').clone().appendTo('#'+childtype+'_insert');
  mysubform.attr('id',childtype+'_'+subformCount).show();
  var i_tag = '#'+childtype+'_'+subformCount+' > ol > ';
  var p_tag = i_tag+' li > ';
  $( i_tag+'input, '+p_tag+'input, '+p_tag+'label, '+p_tag
+'textarea').each(function(index) {
    /* old_school starts here ...*/
    var prefix = thisType;
    if (this.tagName == 'INPUT' || this.tagName == 'TEXTAREA' ) {
      var theName = this.name; // strip off tmpl_
      theName = theName.replace("tmpl_","");
      if (theName) this.name = prefix+'[' + subformCount + '][' +
theName + ']' ;
     var theID = this.id
     theID = theID.replace("tmpl_","");
     if (theID)
       this.id = prefix+'_' + subformCount + '_' + theID ;
    }
    if (this.tagName == 'LABEL') {
      var theName = this.getAttribute('for'); // strip off tmpl_
      theName = theName.replace("tmpl_","");
      if (theName) this.htmlFor = prefix+'_' + subformCount + '_' +
theName;
    }
    /* .. and has ended by here */
  });;
