DOMNode::hasChildNodes
I wrote a function for me to handle several insert modes (including insertAfter)
<?php
public function myInsertNode($newNode, $refNode, $insertMode=null) {
if(!$insertMode || $insertMode == "inside") {
$refNode->appendChild($newNode);
} else if($insertMode == "before") {
$refNode->parentNode->insertBefore($newNode, $refNode);
} else if($insertMode == "after") {
if($refNode->nextSibling) {
$refNode->parentNode->insertBefore($newNode, $refNode->nextSibling);
} else {
$refNode->parentNode->appendChild($newNode);
}
}
}
?>
DOMNode::insertBefore
(PHP 5)
DOMNode::insertBefore — Ajoute un nouveau fils à la fin des enfants
Description
Cette fonction insère un nouveau noeud juste avec le noeud de référence. Si vous comptez faire des modifications plus tard sur l'enfant ajouté, vous devez utiliser le noeud retourné.
Liste de paramètres
- newnode
-
Le nouveau noeud.
- refnode
-
Le noeud référencé. Si non spécifié, newnode sera ajouté au fils.
Valeurs de retour
Le noeud inséré.
Erreurs / Exceptions
- DOM_NO_MODIFICATION_ALLOWED_ERR
-
Lancé si le noeud est en lecture seule ou si le parent précédent le noeud à insérer est en lecture seule.
- DOM_HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR
-
Lancé si ce noeud est d'un type qui n'autorise pas de fils du type du noeud newnode , ou si le noeud à ajouter est un des ancêtres de ce noeud ou ce noeud lui-même.
- DOM_WRONG_DOCUMENT_ERR
-
Lancé si newnode a été créé depuis un document différent que celui qui a créé ce noeud.
- DOM_NOT_FOUND
-
Lancé si refnode n'est pas un fils de ce noeud.

A very usual needed function is "appendSibling" to insert a node just before another one :
<?php
/**
* @param DOMNode $newnode Node to insert next to $ref
* @param DOMNode $ref Reference node
* @requires $ref has a parent node
* @return DOMNode the real node inserted
*/
function appendSibling(DOMNode $newnode, DOMNode $ref)
{
if ($ref->nextSibling) {
// $ref has an immediate brother : insert newnode before this one
return $ref->parentNode->insertBefore($newnode, $ref->nextSibling);
} else {
// $ref has no brother next to him : insert newnode as last child of his parent
return $ref->parentNode->appendChild($newnode);
}
}
?>

Here's a usage example.
If you try this, you'll get an error message.
$refNode->insertBefore($newNode, $refNode);
Try this instead...
$refNode->parentNode->insertBefore($newNode, $refNode);

Sorry, my previous posting worked only for the top node. Here the corrected version, which will work for any node:
XML
----
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<contacts>
<person>Adam</person>
<person>Eva</person>
<person>Thomas</person>
</contacts>
PHP
---
<?php
// load XML, create XPath object
$xml = new DomDocument();
$xml->preserveWhitespace = false;
$xml->load('contacts.xml');
$xpath = new DOMXPath($xml);
// get node eva, which we will append to
$eva = $xpath->query('/contacts/person[.="Eva"]')->item(0);
// create node john
$john = $xml->createElement('person', 'John');
// insert john after eva
// "in eva's parent node (=contacts) insert
// john before eva's next node"
// this also works if eva would be the last node
$eva->parentNode->insertBefore($john, $eva->nextSibling);
// show result
header('Content-Type: text/plain');
print $xml->saveXML();
?>
Result
------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<contacts>
<person>Adam</person>
<person>Eva</person><person>John</person>
<person>Thomas</person>
</contacts>

The previous example is incorrect, and causes a DOM_NOT_FOUND error, as the child nodes are not direct descendants of the root node.
Therefore, the line:
$parent_path = "/root";
needs to change to:
$parent_path = "/root/parent";
or
$parent_path = "//parent";

moving an existing node within the DomDocument:
<root>
<parent>
<child><name>Bob</name></child>
<child><name>Sue</name></child>
</parent>
</root>
$dom = new DomDocument();
$dom->load("sample.xml");
$parent_path = "/root";
$query = "//child[position() = 2]";
$query2 = "//child[position() = 1]";
$xpath = new DomXPath($dom);
$parent = $xpath->query($parent_path);
$under = $xpath->query($query);
$above = $xpath->query($query2);
$parent->item(0)->insertBefore($under->item(0), $above->item(0));
$dom->save("sample.xml");
Should produce:
<root>
<parent>
<child><name>Sue</name></child>
<child><name>Bob</name></child>
</parent>
</root>

example to insert <newnode/> between <chid1/> and <child2/>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<root>
<parent>
<child nr="1"/>
<child nr="2"/>
</parent>
</root>
<?php
$xml_src = 'test.xml';
// XPath-Querys
$parent_path = "//parent";
$next_path = "//parent/child[@nr='2']";
// Create a new DOM document
$dom = new DomDocument();
$dom->load($xml_src);
// Find the parent node
$xpath = new DomXPath($dom);
// Find parent node
$parent = $xpath->query($parent_path);
// new node will be inserted before this node
$next = $xpath->query($next_path);
// Create the new element
$element = $dom->createElement('newnode');
// Insert the new element
$parent->item(0)->insertBefore($element, $next->item(0));
echo $dom->saveXML();
?>

1st argument) a node to insert
2nd argument) a reference node - this is the node that the new node will be inserted before
The trick to using this method is that the OBJECT on which you actually CALL the insertBefore() method is actually the PARENT node of the reference node!
INCORRECT:
$DOMNode_refNode->insertBefore($DOMNode_newNode, $DOMNode_refNode);
CORRECT:
$DOMNode_refNode->parentNode->insertBefore($DOMNode_newNode, $DOMNode_refNode);
