How to clone two columns in a table using jQuery

Answer 1

Try

$('#sourceT tr').clone().appendTo('#targetT')
$('#targetT tr').find('td :gt(1)').remove();

Demo: Fiddle

OR

var clone = $('#sourceT tr').clone()
clone.find('td :gt(1)').remove();
clone.appendTo('#targetT')

Demo: Fiddle

I may prefer the OR portion since the dom is updated only once
