Subject: [ruby-talk:25119] RE:  REXML inserting an element

Benoit-

Here is are some examples of how to do inserts.

doc = Document.new "<a><one/><three/></a>"
doc.root[1,0] = Element.new "two"
# -> <a><one/><two/><three/></a>
three = doc.elements["a/three"]
doc.root.insert_after three, Element.new "four"
# -> <a><one/><two/><three/><four/></a>
 
These are documented here:

Cheers,

Ben

Hi,
I looked up the doc for REXML and couldn't find how one can insert an
element at a specific position, both the Element and
Elements have method to 'add' an element in (I guess) the last position but
if I have
<a>
    <b/>
    <d/>
</a>
and want to add <c/> in between <b/> and <d/>, how do I do it?
