JDOM and appending a child element

[David Rancour]

OK...I must be high or something...

I am writing a webservice which utilizes JDOM and don't see how to append
a newly created node to an existing node in a JDOM document object. What
is going on here? I just generated the api docs for JDOM and searched for
an 'appendChild' method but I just don't see it anywhere!

When using JDOM how do I append a new node to an existing node in a JDOM
document? I'm afraid that using the 'setChildren' method will remove any
existing child nodes on the node that I call 'setChildren' on.

Any help would be great, thanks!!

I don't have JDOM installed, but I did print out an intro to JDOM
(http://www.ibiblio.org/xml/slides/xmlsig/jdom/JDOM.html). From the
examples I saw in the first 15% of that document, I'd say you want the
addContent(Element) method of the Element object.
