Adding more field to PHP form (user can add more than one address)

My users can enter more than one address but I want an actual button that generates the extra fields as only one address is compulsory and empty fields will look ugly! I also need the extra addresses to go into mysql database. How would I do with Javascript if PHP is not possible Some code that may help:

<td width="732" valign="top"><p>
<h3 class="main">Address Details</h3>
<p class="normal"> You are able to add up to 3 addresses but only 1 is compulsory. 
However it would be helpful if you could insert 3 addresses:
<ul>
 <li>Permanent home address</li>
 <li>Postal address (where you will be from June to September)</li>
 <li>Local address (where you currently live)</li>
</ul>    
<?php   
 if(!empty($err))  {
   echo "<div class=\"msg\">";
  foreach ($err as $e) {
    echo "* $e <br>";
    }
  echo "</div>";    
   }
 ?>
 <br>
<form action="address.php" method="post" name="regForm" id="regForm" >
<table width="95%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="3" class="forms">
<tr> 
<td>Street<span class="required"><font color="#CC0000">*</font></span> 
</td>
<td><input name="Street"  type="text" id="Street" class="required" size="50"> 
</tr>
<tr> 
<td>Line 2
</td>
<td><input name="Line2"  type="text" id="Line2" class="required" size="50"> 
</tr>
<tr> 
<td>Line 3
</td>
<td><input name="Line3"  type="text" id="Line3" class="required" size="50"> 
</tr>
<tr> 
<td>Town<span class="required"><font color="#CC0000">*</font></span> 
</td>
<td><input name="Town"  type="text" id="Town" class="required" size="30"> 
</tr>
<tr> 
<td>Postcode<span class="required"><font color="#CC0000">*</font></span> 
</td>

<td><select name="Country" class="required" id="select8">
            <option value="" selected></option>
            <option value="Afghanistan">Afghanistan</option>
            <option value="Albania">Albania</option>
           (etc)
          </select></td>
</tr>

<td><select name="Type" class="required" id="select8">
            <option value="" selected></option>
            <option value="H">Home</option>
            <option value="P">Postal</option>
            <option value="L">Local</option>

to fix your parse error - put ; at the end of line $numrows = 0 + $_GET['numrows']

to generate more fields dynamically - use javascript, really, it's way better for this task than php
