var root;
var MyText;
var MyNewNode;
xmlDoc.async = false;
xmlDoc.load("books.xml");
if (xmlDoc.parseError.errorCode != 0) {
   var myErr = xmlDoc.parseError;
   alert("You have error " + myErr.reason);
} else {
   root = xmlDoc.documentElement;
   MyText = xmlDoc.createTextNode("Hello World");
   MyNewNode = root.insertBefore(MyText, root.childNodes.item(0));
   alert(xmlDoc.xml);
}
