Adding text between child elements in a node

[clivethebadger]

Hi,
I've got HTML elements created in JavaScript and have appended them to parent node. How do I add some text in between them in the parent node?

I need to do something like this....

parent.appendChild(child1);
//add the text " | " in between...
parent.appendChild(child2);

So I've got two elements separated by " | ".

How do I add this text?

Thanks,
Jon

Append a text node to the parent after you append child1.

parent.appendCh ild(document.cr eateTextNode(' | '));

or if you wait till after you insert the second element
parent.insertBe fore(document.c reateTextNode(' | '),child2)
