How to insert a new node at a specific position

[eva.mukhija]

I'm using DOM Parser for manipulating XML Document.I need to detect the
end of a particular node in an XML document and insert an entirely new
node just before its end as depicted below
The XML Document can contain multiple occurances of type Node1:
I need to add a new child node(newNode) just before it ends. Can any
one help??
<Node1>

<newNode></newNode>
</Node1>
<Node1>
<newNode></newNode>
</Node1>
<Node1>
<newNode></newNode>
</Node1>

You can find all <Node1> elements using
xmlDocument.getElementsByTagName("Node1")
which gives a collection you can loop through, for each node in the
collection you can then call the appendChild method to append a newly
created node.

What if Node1 contains many child nodes and I intend to append this in
the last.. Will the above suffice??
<Node1>
<A></A>
<B></B>
<newNode></newNode>
</Node1>

The appendChild method appends the node passed in as the last child the
method is called on, yes. See the DOM documentation
<http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Core/core.html#ID-1950641247>
it documents methods like appendChild.
