dom insert element code example

Example 1: insert element to dom

var node = document.createElement("LI");                 // Create a <li> node

 var textnode = document.createTextNode("Water");         // Create a text node

 node.appendChild(textnode);                              // Append the text to <li>

 document.getElementById("myList").appendChild(node);     // Append <li> to <ul> with id="myList"

Example 2: js insertbefore

// The Node.insertBefore() method inserts a node before a
// reference node as a child of a specified parent node.
let insertedNode = parentNode.insertBefore(newNode, referenceNode)

Example 3: appendchild javascript

const parent = document.createElement('div');
const child = document.createElement('p');
const childTwo = document.createElement('p');
parent.append(child, childTwo, 'Hello world'); // Works fine
parent.appendChild(child, childTwo, 'Hello world');
// Works fine, but adds the first element and ignores the rest

Example 4: add a child html object to another html object in js

//Add child at end of object children list
parent.append(child);
//Add child at start of object children list
parent.insertBefore(child, list.childNodes[0]);
