via the assignment operator, such as
x[["myTag"]] <- xmlNode("mySubTag").
# S3 method for XMLNode
[(x, i) <- value
# S3 method for XMLNode
[(x, i) <- value
# S3 method for XMLNode
[[(x, i) <- valueThe XML node x containing the new or modified
nodes.
the XMLNode object to which the sub-node is to be assigned.
the identifier for the position in the list of children

These can be either numbers or names.
one or more XMLNode objects which are to be the sub-nodes
