you can also append this way

hello
            
hello2
            
hello3
            
hello4
        
    
';
libxml_use_internal_errors(true);
$doc = new DOMDocument(); 
$doc->loadHTML($html);
//get the element you want to append to
$descBox = $doc->getElementById('one');
//create the element to append to #element1
$appended = $doc->createElement('li', 'This is a test element.');
//actually append the element
$descBox->appendChild($appended);
echo $doc->saveHTML();

dont forget to saveHTML on the last line
