needs to contain ALL of your jQuery not just your event listeners.

Sorry but that is bullcrap You can place the function outside if you want.
The reason why it didnt work is how you did the append. In JS you cant create multiline variables like that. Instead you have to "glue" the lines together like this:

Code:

function addItem(){
    $('#divItems').append('<label for="item[]">Item description</label>'
        + '&lt;input type="text" name="item[]" id="item[]" class="short" /&gt;'
        + '<em>E.g. Repairs - 5 hours @ &pound;10 /hr</em>'
        + '<label for="price[]">Price</label>'
        + '&lt;input type="text" name="price[]" id="price[]" class="short" /&gt;'
    );
}
