Bug: insertBefore doesn't remove the inserted node from the original parent node

[henningko]

I am trying to unwrap a node (e.g. move all its content to the parent node), also see #106

The easiest implementation would be something like this, with el being any element that has a parent

let parent = el.parentNode;
while (el.firstChild) parent.insertBefore(el.firstChild, el);

• https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Node/childNodes#remove_all_children_from_a_node

However, with deno-dom, this puts me into an infinite loop, as el.firstChild never returns a falsy value. I assume this is due to the underlying childNodes not being updated.

Which version of Deno DOM are you using? The .childNodes should definitely be live

I was able to reproduce it, thanks for reporting it. I'll push a fix hopefully later today
