title: Create element from template element?
body: <p>I'm having some trouble with this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>template = $("#template");
  $(template).attr("id", "newid");
  
  $(template).appendTo("body");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What I want to do is assign an id to the template, then amend the content. Trouble is, I am currently referring to the actual template element, and so the id is changing that. On using this template again, I cannot select as the id is different.</p>
  
  <p>Any advice on optimal approach?</p>
