DOM Level 2 Range
Synopsis
void insertNode(NodenewNode)throws RangeException,
DOMException;
Arguments
newNode
The node to be inserted into the document.
Throws
This method throws a RangeException with a code of
INVALID_NODE_TYPE_ERR if
newNode is an Attr, Document, Entity, or Notation
node.
This method also throws a DOMException with one of the following
code values under the following conditions:
HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR
The node that contains the start of the range does not allow
children, or it does not allow children of the specified type, or
newNode is an ancestor of that node.
NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR
The node that contains the start of the range, or any of its
ancestors, is read-only.
WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR
newNode is part of a different document than the
range is.
Description
This method inserts the specified node (and all its descendants) into
the document at the start position of this range. When this method
returns, this range includes the newly inserted node. If
newNode is already part of the document,
it is removed from its current position and then reinserted at the
start of the range. If newNode is a
DocumentFragment node, it is not inserted itself, but all of its
children are inserted, in order, at the start of the range.
If the node that contains the start of the range is a Text node, it
is split into two adjacent nodes before the insertion takes place. If
newNode is a Text node, it is not merged
with any adjacent Text nodes after it is inserted. To merge adjacent
nodes, call Node.normalize( ).

This fourth edition of the definitive reference to
JavaScript, a scripting language that can be embedded
directly in web pages, covers the latest version of the
language, JavaScript 1.5, as supported by Netscape 6 and
Internet Explorer 6. The book also provides complete
coverage of the W3C DOM standard (Level 1 and Level 2),
while retaining material on the legacy Level 0 DOM for
backward compatibility.
