Create two variables to store content:

var firstDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv1');
var secondDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv2');

Now just set the value in the second div:

 secondDivContent.innerHTML = firstDivContent.innerHTML;

Complete code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function copyDiv(){
  var firstDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv1');
  var secondDivContent = document.getElementById('mydiv2');
  secondDivContent.innerHTML = firstDivContent.innerHTML;
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="copyDiv();">
<div id="mydiv1">
  <div id="div1">
  </div>
  <div id="div2">
  </div>
 </div>

 <div id="mydiv2">
 </div>
 </body>
 </html>
