How to use the addChild method of javascript to add a node to my div?

Hello I have a div as follows

<div id=test class=test2>

<p> <a href=> <a> </p>

<p> <a href=> <a> </p>

<p> <a href=> <a> </p>

<p> <a href=> <a> </p>

</div>

(I have stripped out the data but that is the structure)

How does one use the addChild function of javascript to add a new node

<p> <a href=> <a> </p>

I know how to use the removeChild function but I haven't been able to find documentation and examples using the addChild function.

If I have the node string in a php array, and can execute the php script containing the array with a GET call via a button click how can I use the addChild function to put the node string into the div?

addChild is a php function, The javascript function is called appendChild:

var dv = document.createElement(p);

dv.innerHTML = <a href=> </a> ;

document.getElementById('test').appendChild(dv)

Alternativly, you can append the node string to the html:
document.getElementById('test').innerHTML += '<p> <a href=> <a> </p> '
