how can i dynamically add elements to my form using javascript or jquery?

I have a student profile form, where student fills information about their education.

My code is

<script language="JavaScript">

var imCount = 0;

function addRow(r, tdCount) {
     alert(tdCount);
     alert(r.innerHTML);
     var root = r.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode; //the root 

     var allRows = root.getElementsByTagName('tr'); //the rows' collection 
     var cRow = root.insertRow(7);
     var cRow = allRows[tdCount + imCount].cloneNode(true)//the clone of the 1strow 

        cRow.setAttribute('name', cRow.getAttribute('name') + '_' + (allRows.length + 1 +  imCount)); //change the selecet's name 

    var cLbl = cRow.getElementsByTagName('label')[0];
    cLbl.setAttribute("style", "visibility: collapse");

    var cInp = cRow.getElementsByTagName('input'); //the inputs' collection of the 1st row 
    for (var i = 0; i < cInp.length; i++) {//changes the inputs' names (indexes the names) 
        cInp[i].setAttribute('name', cInp[0].getAttribute('name') + '_' + (allRows.length + 1 + imCount))
    }
    var cSel = cRow.getElementsByTagName('select')[0];
    cSel.setAttribute('name', cSel.getAttribute('name') + '_' + (allRows.length + 1 + imCount)); //change the selecet's name 
    //root.appendChild(cRow);//appends the cloned row as a new row 
    allRows[tdCount + imCount].parentNode.insertBefore(cRow, allRows[tdCount + imCount].nextSibling)
    imCount++;
    alert(imCount);
}

  </script>

            </div>
</td>
</tr>

</table>
    </form>

When user click on Add School link it will call addRow() and passing two parameters addRow(r, tdCount).

 <a href="#" onClick="javascript: addRow(this,1);">Add Schools</a>  

i am passing 1 to add new elements to row 1 it works perfect

i can add multiple new element but now looking to another section,

 <a href="#" onClick="javascript: addRow(this,4);">Add High Schools</a>

here i am passing 4 to add new elements to my form,it works perfect without adding ADD SCHOOLS. but when i add schools 2-3 times it will not add high school.

Like this

in above image you can find that i have added 3 new schools and now i want to add high school but it cant be added to the form.

How can i solve this issue?

Any way to find tr instead of hard coding values in addRow(this,4)?

---

I'd change your code like this (removing the onclick )

$('.studentprofileupdateBody a').click(function(){
   console.log('ok');
    var $tr = $(this).closest('tr').prev()
     var clone = $tr.clone();
    $tr.after(clone);
});
