How to create HTML tags? #11

Closed jakejackson1 closed 1 year ago

jakejackson1 commented 1 year ago

From querypath created by salarmehr: technosophos/querypath#178

Running 

echo qp('<div>s</div>')->html();

similar to other jQuery PHP implementation, I expect to get <div>s</div> but it returns a complete document:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
<html><body><div>s</div></body></html>

and I have to use qp('<div>s</div>')->top('body *')->html(); which is cumbersome. In particular when use what to build several section of a page programmatically and merge them

echo qp('<div></div>')->innerHtml(); reutrns <body> <div/></body>

It seems there is no difference between the output of html5() and html()

Does innerHtml() work?

You may also consider switching the parser to the HTML5 one. It's less picky than the built-in libxml html 4 parser. I can't remember if it will make a difference, but you can try html5() instead of html and see if that helps.
