How to move element in the DOM in JavaScript?
To move element in the DOM in JavaScript, we can use the before
and after
methods.
For instance, we write
const div1 = document.getElementById("div1");
const div2 = document.getElementById("div2");
const div3 = document.getElementById("div3");
div2.after(div1);
div2.before(div3);
to select 3 divs with getElementById
.
Then we call div2.after
with div1
to insert div1
after div2
.
And we call div2.before
with div3
to insert div3
before div2
.
