    $(this).parent('.click').append('<div id="forclick">some data inside it</div>');

Try using .parents(...) instead of .parent(...)

by way of the code you have given us I created a fiddle demo of what the the code is expecting the html to look like and how this would work let me know if that helps you out

HTML

<div class="click">
    <div id="start-chat">start chat</div>
</div>

and your code

$('#start-chat').live("click",function(){
    $(this).parent('.click').append('<div id="forclick">some data inside it</div>');
});
