You don't give enough information about your problem for anyone to
diagnose.  Here is an example of what you described in your original
message:

$ python
Python 2.3.2 (#1, Dec  8 2003, 07:49:35)
[GCC 3.2.2 20030222 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.2-5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> XML = "<a><b/><b/></a>"
>>> from amara import binderytools
>>> doc = binderytools.bind_string(XML)
>>> doc.a.xml_append(doc.xml_element(None, u'b')) #None is the namespace
>>> doc.xml()
'<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>\n<a><b/><b/><b/></a>'
>>> print doc.xml()
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<a><b/><b/><b/></a>
>>>

Works fine.  If you tried something similar and it didn't work, let us
know the details of what you tried and what went wrong.

Thanks.
