As you can see below, I have a simple div containing a row I would like to append to the end of my table. If I alert the contents of the div back to the screen using ".html()", jQuery strips out all of the td/tr tags.
<html>
<head>
<title>jQuery Strips Table Tags</title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready( function() {
alert($("#newRow").html());
$(".tasks > tbody:last").append($("#newRow").html());
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<table class="tasks" style="margin-left: 0px;">
<tr>
<th>Feeder ID</th>
<th>From</th>
<th>To</th>
<th># Reels</th>
<th>Reel Length</th>
<th>Type</th>
<th>Colour</th>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<div id="newRow" style="display: none;">
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="feeder_id" id="feeder_id" /></td>
<td><input type="text" name="from" id="from" /></td>
<td><input type="text" name="to" id="to" /></td>
<td><select name="number" id="number">
<option value=1>1</option>
<option value=2>2</option>
<option value=3>3</option>
<option value=4>4</option>
<option value=6>6</option>
<option value=8>8</option>
<option value=9>9</option>
<option value=12>12</option>
