Hi!

I was trying to insert an icon next to the search header to try and learn how to inset items into Discourse for a start.

However, this didn’t work.

```plaintext
<script>
node = document.getElementsByClassName('search-page-heading');
node.insertAdjacentElements('beforebegin', '<svg class="PixlzThemeSearchIcon" aria-hidden="true"><use xlink:href="#search"></use></svg>');
</script>

```

It could be a stupid mistake (as some of you know I become more stupid at night), but help is appreciated.  
Thanks!
