Re: libXML, append and order

This is how I tend to do it:

my $newNode = XML::LibXML::Element->new('new-element');
if ($parent->findnodes('node()'))
{
        $refNode = ${[$parent->findnodes('node()')]}[0]; # get first child 
node
        $parent->insertBefore($newNode, $refNode);
}
else
{
        $parent->appendChild($newNode);
}

Is this what you mean?

There might be a case for writing LibXML methods for common tasks like 
this. Or, there might be an easier way of doing all this.

Hi friends,

I have a question regarding how to add nodes with LibXML in order.

i am trying to add a node to a document using LibXML, currently with
appendChild. It works (node gets added), but the result is in the
wrong order. As documented node gets appended at the end of the
nodelist.

Is there away to add something to the beginning of a lodelist?

Thanks!

maurice
