I have two divs on my website. They both share the same css properties, but one of them holds 24 other divs. I want all of these 24 divs to be copied into the other div. This is how it looks like:
<div id="mydiv1">
<div id="div1">
</div>
</div id="div2>
</div>
//and all the way up to div 24.
</div>
<div id="mydiv2">
</div>
I want all of the 24 divs within mydiv1 to be copied into mydiv2 when the page loads.
Thanks in advance

To clone a div and change its id with JavaScript, we can use the cloneNode method on the div. Then we can set the id property of the cloned element to set the ID. to add the div.
The function copies the visible text of the element to the clipboard. This works as if you had selected the text and copied it with ctrl+c. Use the parameter "id" to select the element you want to copy.
All you have to do is select the element(s) you want to move, then call an “adding” method such as append() , appendTo() or prepend() to add the selected elements to another parent element. jQuery automatically realises that the element(s) to add already exist in the page, and it moves the element(s) to the new parent.
You call the cloneNode() method on the element you want to copy. If you want to also copy elements nested inside it, pass in true as an argument. // Get the element var elem = document. querySelector('#elem1'); // Create a copy of it var clone = elem.
Firstly we are assigning divs into variables (optional)
var firstDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv1');
var secondDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv2');
Now just assign mydiv1's content to mydiv2.
secondDivContent.innerHTML = firstDivContent.innerHTML;

COMPLETE CODE
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function copyDiv(){
var firstDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv1');
var secondDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv2');
secondDivContent.innerHTML = firstDivContent.innerHTML;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="copyDiv();">
<div id="mydiv1">
<div id="div1">
</div>
<div id="div2">
</div>
</div>
<div id="mydiv2">
</div>
</body>
</html>
You can use the .ready() event of jquery
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery('.div1').html(jQuery("#div2").html());
}
Also a working DEMO.

var divs = document.getElementById('mydiv1').innerHTML;
document.getElementById('mydiv2').innerHTML= divs;
