Add an Element with Text Inside
Create & add an XML element to an XML document, the element has text inside.
ex: <foo>hello, world!</foo>
from xml.dom.minidom import parse
dom = parse("bar.xml")
x = dom.createElement("foo") # creates <foo />
txt = dom.createTextNode("hello, world!") # creates "hello, world!"
x.appendChild(txt) # results in <foo>hello, world!</foo>
dom.childNodes[1].appendChild(x) # appends at end of 1st child's \ children
print dom.toxml()
