Assign label names to field names

[aus_fas1]

I want to replace form field names with the label text in the following code. I am just missing a line perhaps

var template = $('#idRequestDetails').clone();
template.find('input,select,textarea,table').each(function(){
    var newId = this.id.substring(0, this.id.length-1) + uniqueId;
    $(this).prev().attr('for', newId); // update label for
    this.name = this.id = newId; // update id and name (assume the same)
});

There's a small code snippet from this link that can replace form fields to labels:
