When creating empty nodes like xhtml:link, the output misses the closing slash. This is what I got:
<link ...>
DomDocument->create_element
(No version information available, might be only in CVS)
DomDocument->create_element — 新規要素ノードを作成する
説明
object DomDocument->create_element
( string $name
)
この関数は DomElement クラスの新規インスタンスを返します。 要素のタグ名は渡されたパラメータの値です。このノードは、例えば DomNode_append_child() などを用いて挿入されるまで、 文章には現れません。
エラーが発生した場合、戻り値は FALSE です。
DomNode_append_child(), DomDocument_create_text(), DomDocument_create_comment(), DomDocument_create_attribute(), DomDocument_create_processing_instruction(), DomDocument_create_entity_reference(), DomNode_insert_before() も参照ください。

The first example on this page is also a bit verbose. Since the DomElement class inherits/extends the DomNode class, one does not, in fact, have to get another reference to the first node. The create_element method has already given you that reference. (Also, the last line passes a string to the append_child method, instead of a DomNode object) Simplified:
<?
$new_element = $dom->create_element("new_element");
$new_element->append_child($another_element);
$oldTag->append_child($new_element);
?>

The example done by Nico Almhoedi has a small error.
Since append_child only accepts DomElement (which is an object), it should've been:
$new_element = DomDocument->create_element("new_el");
$new_node = $existent_node->append_child($new_element);

It's easier possible since DomNode->append_child($new_element) returns the new child as an object, so you can refer to it immediately.
To append a child to the node $existent_node:
$new_element = DomDocument->create_element("new_el");
$new_node = $existent_node->append_child("new_el");
see Manual DomNode->append_child()

Its important to remember, when adding a created element to an existing node using append_child(), that if you want to then add another element to that node you have to go back and set up a DOMNode instance using DOMDocument_get_elements_by_tagname or similar before you can append another node onto it.
eg
<?
$new_element = $dom->create_element("new_element");
$oldTag->append_child($new_element);
//Go back and set up new element as DOMNode
$new_elementArray = $dom->get_elements_by_tagname("new_element");
$new_elementTag = $new_elementArray[0];//(if theres more than one use a for loop)
$new_elementTag->append_child("another_new_element");
?>
