How can i add element and value in XML?

Question

I have this XML file:
(Actually, right now it is a StringBuffer, i don't want to save it to a file, i want to use it from the memory directly)

StringBuffer book =  
<book>
 <title>test</title>
 <bookinfo>
  <page>100</page>
 </bookinfo>
</book>

In here, i want to add a element and a value like this:

<book>
 <title>test</title>
 <bookinfo>
  <page>100</page>
  <price>100</price>
 </bookinfo>
</book>

what is the fast and easiest way to add an element and value in XML?
