Description:

Places a new HTML element in the existing HTML DOM. The desired position for the new HTML element is specified by using CSS selector syntax. The incoming HTML is first converted into a HTML Document Object Model so that HTML DOM location may be located in a similar manner that CSS selectors are used to apply styles to HTML. The resulting HTML DOM is then “queried” using the user defined CSS selector string to find the position where the user desires to add the new HTML element. Once the new HTML element is added to the DOM it is rendered to HTML and the result replaces the flowfile content with the updated HTML. A more thorough reference for the CSS selector syntax can be found at “http://jsoup.org/apidocs/org/jsoup/select/Selector.html”
