            </tr><?
            ?><td colspan="3" class="no_border"><button class="add" name="add"></button>
            <label id="add" class="cursor_pointer"> Add more co-authors</label></td><?

You will need to use the jQuery .on() functionality to access elements created after the DOM has loaded.

More specific info can be found in the jQuery manual here: http://api.jquery.com/on/

$( document ).on( "click", "#add", function() {
    alert("aaaaaaaaaaa");
} ); 

In jQuery < 1.7 , this was previously used like so:

$( "#add" ).live( "click", function( e ) {} );
