Children

Correctly handling an element’s child elements is crucial for keeping the element hierarchy organized. These Element methods let you retrieve and insert child elements, offering programmatic ways to change page structure.

To effectively use these methods, check if an element has its Children property set to true. This property is read-only, so it’s important to use elements that have this attribute. Using these methods with elements that don’t have this property will return an error.

Methods

The Children property supports the following methods:

Get children

Get child elements from a parent element in the element hierarchy.

Prepend

Insert a new element onto the page as the first child of the target element.

Append

Insert a new element onto the page as the last child of the target element.
