  <p id="one">Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.</p>
  <p id="two">Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.</p>

Demo

getElementById() Method

getElementById() method is used to target or select the HTML element. In this example it is used to select the HTML element after which or before which, we can add HTML content.

insertAdjacentHTML Method

The insertAdjacentHTML inserts HTML Content at a specified position, The predefined positions that we can use are beforeend, afterend, beforebegin and afterbegin.

This JavaScript insertAdjacentHTML Method is used in this example as well to insert HTML Content anywhere in the page.

In above JavaScript code we have used afterend, which is used to insert or add HTML content after particular tag or element.

We can also use beforebegin to add same HTML content before that particular HTML tag.
