Cloning whole form elements after clicking button

I have this following form

<form action="" class="form-horizontal">
<div id="wrapper">
    <div class="row-fluid">
        <div class="span6">
            <div class="control-group">
                <label class="control-label"><?=$core->l("default_comm_type");?></label>
                <div class="controls">          
                    <select id="fld_default_comm_type" name="fld_default_comm_type[]" defaultValue="-1" class="m-wrap span10" field="fld_default_comm_type" appEditor="true">
                        <?=combo_creator::render_default_comm_types()?>
                    </select>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="span4 checkerAlign">
            <div class="control-group">
                <div class="controls">
                    <?=$core->l("is_active");?> 
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div class="span2 checkerAlign"><input type="checkbox" name="fld_active[]" id="fld_active" editType="booleanEdit" appEditor="true"/></div>
    </div>
    <div><a href="#" id="addMore">Add Row</a></div>
</div>

The question is when user clicks Add Row button, I need to create a copy of this form elements inside 

<div id="wrapper">

How can i do that?

EDIT: SOLVED

<form action="" class="form-horizontal" id="wrapper">
<div class="row-fluid">
    <div class="span6">
        <div class="control-group">
            <label class="control-label"><?=$core->l("default_comm_type");?></label>
            <div class="controls">          
                <select id="fld_default_comm_type" name="fld_default_comm_type[]" defaultValue="-1" class="m-wrap span10" field="fld_default_comm_type" appEditor="true">
                    <?=combo_creator::render_default_comm_types()?>
                </select>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="span4 checkerAlign">
        <div class="control-group">
            <div class="controls">
                <?=$core->l("is_active");?> 
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="span2 checkerAlign"><input type="checkbox" name="fld_active[]" id="fld_active" editType="booleanEdit" appEditor="true"/></div>
</div>
<a href="#" id="addMore">add</a>
</form>

In the Js part: 

jQuery("#addMore").click(function(){
 var contents = jQuery("form").html();
    jQuery("#wrapper").append(contents);
});

When add is clicked it inserts form elements just as I wanted and when delete is clicked it deletes elements. Thank you for the tips guys Problem solved! Thanks guys.

I think you need to duplicate the contents of (row-fluid), not the whole (Wrapper) contents, this should let you add more rows of your original form template when clicking on AddMore link.

This is an edit to the suggested solution by @user2389688:

$("#addMore").click(function(){   
    $(".row-fluid:last").clone().appendTo(".wrapper");  
});

For example:

$('#addMore').click(function() {
    $('.row-fluid').eq(0).clone().insertBefore(this);
});

Something like this ?

$("#addMore").click(function(){
   var contents = $("form").html();
   $("#wrapper").append(contents);  
});

If I did understand your question correctly.
