Create a button which duplicate elements of an array
Hello everybody I'm new in javascript. I want to create a button which duplicate elements in an array. I try this :
%a.btn.btn-success#addd :href => "#", :onclick => "duplicate(this.parentNode.parentNode)"
:javascript
document.getElementById('addd').click = duplicate;
var i = 0;
var original = document.getElementById('inf_finding.id');
function duplicate(original)
var clone = original.cloneNode(true);
clone.id = "inf_finding.id" + ++i;
original.parentNode.appendChild(clone);
But I refresh it, the element that I add is not in the page anymore.Can you help me to resolve this please ?

Your code only makes changes within the DOM of the current webpage. When the page is refreshed, the DOM is regenerated from the HTML sent by the server and so your changes are lost.
In order to make persistent changes, you need to save data either on the server (using AJAX) or in the browser using Local Storage, Cookies, etc.
By clicking "Post Your Answer", you acknowledge that you have read our updated terms of service, privacy policy and cookie policy, and that your continued use of the website is subject to these policies.
Of course, when you reload the page, everything is reset. What did you expect :) You have to implement some kind of persistence, the easiest being probably the LocalStorage that can store strings and is unaffected by page refreshes.
