The inputs are missing the closing dash.

Can you turn this loose data into a formal test case ? a minimalistic html file with the requires html and js to reproduce the problem.

Use this link to include jQuery: http://code.jquery.com/jquery-nightly.js

This is a limitation of cloning most form elements in IE and we are unable to set the value of the file input via javascript due to security restrictions.
