\title{Add children to an XML node}
\description{
This appends one or more XML nodes as children of an existing node.
}
\usage{
append.XMLNode(to, ...)
append.xmlNode(to, ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{to}{the XML node to which the sub-nodes are to be added.}
\item{\dots}{the sub-nodes which are to be added to the \code{to} node.
If this is a \code{list} of \code{XMLNode} objects (e.g. create by a call to
\code{\link{lapply}}), then that list is used.}
}
\value{
The original \code{to} node containing its new children nodes.
