jQuery stop append removing div
<p>I am copying a div into another div using append. However it removes the original. I tried to use clone but it seems to only work with appendTo. But appendTo breaks my layout so I have to use append with works fine.</p>

<p>I am wrong that clone will not work with .append and is there another way to stop the div removing?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<pre><code>              $('.compareWrapper').append(htmlStr)                              
</code></pre>
