display Text under text using javascript & DHTML

[nskclr]

Hi

I add a text using document.selection.createRange().
I want to add a text to the bottom of another text - similar to what we do in HTML.
<p>
xyz
</p>
<p><div style="position:relative;bottom:30px;">abc</div></p>

How can I achieve that using javascript?

Welcome to TSDN!

You may want to read about the insertBefore method. There's no insertAfter method, but the page explains how that can be achieved.

I want to add the text to the text inside textarea. So I use document.selection.createRange() and populate it using createRange().text. As there is no element associated with in the textarea, I am unable to use the insertBefore() method. Please give me some other option.

In that case, just add it to the value of the textarea:

document.getElementById("textareaID").value += whatever;
