# insertBefore

The **`insertBefore()`** method adds a Element to the end of the list of children of a element.

**Example**

<pre class="language-lua"><code class="lang-lua">local name = window.input("What is your name?","My name is ...")
<strong>local elm = document.createNode("p",{style="color:red"},string.format("Welcome %s",name))
</strong>document.querySelector("body").insertBefore(elm,1) -- Inserts at the front
</code></pre>
