Description Andrew Clover 2003-12-12 14:42:39 UTC 
level3/core/nodeinsertbefore10

The test tries to insert an element into Document but the refChild argument is
not a child of Document. Therefore NOT_FOUND_ERR is as valid a response as
HIERARCHY_REQUEST_ERR. We could change it to get the first element
instead of the second, but then this would be no different than using
document.documentElement, which nodeinsertbefore06 already does.
Comment 1 Curt Arnold 2003-12-22 17:43:19 UTC 
In addition, a NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR could also be raised.  nodeinsertbefore10 and 
nodeinsertbefore06 will be modified.
