jQuery clone duplicate IDs

Question

I have an HTML element with a large collection of unordered lists contained within it. I need to clone this element to place elsewhere on the page with different styles adde

Answer 1

I believe this is the best way

var $clone = $("#MainConfig").clone(false);
$clone.removeAttr('id'); // remove id="MainConfig"
$clone.find('[id]').removeAttr('id'); // remove all other id attributes
$clone.appendTo($("#smallConfig")); // add to DOM.
