How to insertBefore() element in body tag?

问题

I am trying to use insertBefore in js like this:

var p = document.createElement("p");
p.innerHTML = "test1";
document.body.insertBefore(p, null);

var p = document.createElement("p");
p.innerHTML = "test2";
document.body.insertBefore(p, null);

But that would add the last p element just before the close of the body tag, how could I use it so it will be added to the top when it opens? So the last element added will be the first element inside the body tag.

I tried:

document.body.insertBefore(p, document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]);

But firebug shows:

Node was not found" code: "8

回答1:

You can get the first child of the body element with the firstChild property. Then use it as the reference.

const p = document.createElement("p");
p.textContent = "test1";
document.body.insertBefore(p, document.body.firstChild);

I modernized your code for reasons :)

回答2:

document.body.prepend(p);

This is a new addition in (likely) ES7. It is vanilla JS and is more readable than previous options. It is currently available in 83% of browsers, including Chrome, FF, and Opera.

You can directly prepend strings, although they won't be 'p' tags

document.body.prepend('This text!');

You have to insert before something. document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0] is the body element (the syntax is a bit of a trick to get the body element in all browsers)¹. If you want to insert into the body, you want to insert before the first element of it. That could look like this:

var body   = document.body || document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0],
    newpar = document.createElement('p');
newpar.innerHTML = 'Man, someone just created me!';
body.insertBefore(newpar,body.childNodes[0]);

¹in some browsers it's document.body, other document.documentElement etc., but in all browsers the tagname is body
