I want to make a book catalog with JQuery to add books to a author. In the code That I have I am trying to add a author and have his books be in a array with his number only. Separated by other authors and their own arrays of books.
For example, when I press the button to add a author a input box appears so that I can add the authors name also a button to add a book that when I press that button I get an input box to add a books name.
When I press the add author again I want to be able to add another author with the same input boxes as before (adding more books to that author).
Also to add multiple books assigned to that author.
I have already done this in the pics but I get an array of everything. I want it to be separated by author.
author1 has an array of {book1, book2, book3...}
author2 has an array of {book13, book14, book15}
(i'm a beginner at JQuery)
This is the code that I have so far:

Please try this code and include jquery min js :
<div class="my-form">
<form role="form" method="post">
<p class="all_fields">
<div id="commonPart" class="commonPart">
<label for="author1">Author <span class="author-number"></span></label>
<input type="text" name="author" value="" id="author1" />
<br/>
<div>
<label for="author1">book <span class="author-number"></span></label>
<input type="text" class="bookName" name="authBook[]"/>
</div>
</div>
<button type="button" class="add_author" onclick="AddCustomMOre();">Add More</button>
</p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p>
</form>
</div>
<script> function AddCustomMOre(){
$(".all_fields ").append('<div id="commonPart" class="commonPart"><label for="author1">Author <span class="author-number"></span></label> <input type="text" name="author" value="" id="author1" /> <br/> <div><label for="author1">book <span class="author-number"></span></label> <input type="text" class="bookName" name="authBook[]"/></div> <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="$(this).parent().remove();">Remove</a></div>');
} </script>
You can try this....
<p class="all_fields">
<button class="add_author">Add Author</button>
<div class="commonPart">
<label for="author1">Author <span class="author-number">1</span></label>
<br/>
<input type="text" name="author1" value="" id="author1" />
<br/>
<button div-id="1" class="add_book">Add book</button>
<div id="books1">
<input type="text" class="bookName" name="authBook[]"/>
</div>
</div>
</p>
<script>
var c=1;
$(".add_author").on("click",function(){
c++;
$(".all_fields").append('<div class="commonPart"><label for="author'+c+'">Author <span class="author-number">'+c+'</span></label><br/><input type="text" name="author'+c+'" value="" id="author'+c+'" /><br/><button class="add_book" div-id="'+c+'">Add book</button><div id="books'+c+'"><input type="text" class="bookName" name="authBook[]"/></div></div>');
});
$(".add_book").on("click",function(){
var id=$(this).attr("div-id");
$("#books"+id).append('<input type="text" class="bookName" name="authBook[]"/>');
});
