How do I add a text after an HTML element using pure Javascript? There is appendChild but this adds it within the element. I would instead like to add it as a sibling after the element like this:
<img id="myimg" src="..." />
<script>
var myimg = document.getElementById('myimg');
myimg.appendAFTER('This is my caption.'); //pseudo-code and doesn't really work
</script>
I would like to end up with this:
<img id="myimg" src="..." />
This is my caption.
What is the Javascript equivalend of after() from jQuery?
Check out Node.insertBefore() and Node.nextSibling (fiddle):
var myimg = document.getElementById('myimg');
var text = document.createTextNode("This is my caption.");
myimg.parentNode.insertBefore(text, myimg.nextSibling)
or Element.insertAdjacentHTML() (fiddle):
var myimg = document.getElementById('myimg');
myimg.insertAdjacentHTML("afterend", "This is my caption.");
