If i have a operation like "insert node n as the i th  child of node p" ,
what will be the the xsl?

To repeat a FGA[*], XSLT can't change the source. It reads the source and writes output.


for example
<book>
        <author>P.G.Wodehouse</author>
        <name>Good Morning Jeeves</name>
        <price>20</price>
</book>

if i  add the node <review></review> as the 3rd child of book then the xsl
will be

<book>
        <author>P.G.Wodehouse</author>
        <name>Good Morning Jeeves</name>
        <review>Some comments here</review>
        <price>20</price>
</book>

What you want to do is copy the book, with the review added. You could do this by starting with the identity transform (see the XSLT Recommendation) and adding


<xsl:template match="book">
  <xsl:copy select=".">
    <xsl:apply-templates select="*[position() &lt; 3]"/>
    <review>Some comments here</review>
    <xsl:apply-templates select="*[position() >= 3]"/>
  </xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
