pQuery is a jQuery like html dom parser written in php. It is a fork of the [ganon dom parser](https://code.google.com/p/ganon/).

Basic usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

To get started using pQuery do the following.

1. Require the pQuery library into your project using [composer](http://getcomposer.org/doc/01-basic-usage.md#the-require-key).
2. Parse a snippet of html using `pQuery::parseStr()` or `pQuery::parseFile()` to return a document object model (DOM).
3. Run jQuery like functions on the DOM.

Example
-------

[](#example)

The following example parses an html string and does some manipulation on it.

```
$html = '
  Hello
  Cruel
  World
';

$dom = pQuery::parseStr($html);

$dom->query('.inner')
    ->tagName('span');

$dom->query('.adj')
    ->html('Beautiful')
    ->tagName('i');

echo $dom->html();
```

Differences between pQuery and ganon
------------------------------------

[](#differences-between-pquery-and-ganon)

pQuery is a fork of the [ganon php processor](https://code.google.com/p/ganon/). Most of the functionality is identical to ganon with the following exceptions.

- pQuery is a composer package.
- pQuery renames ganon's classes and puts them into a namespace.
- pQuery is used only with objects rather than functions so that it can be autoloaded.
- pQuery Adds the `IQuery` interface and the `pQuery` object that define the jQuery-like interface for querying the dom.
- pQuery implements more of jQuery's methods. See the `IQuery` interface for a list of methods.
- pQuery supports adding tags to the dom using the `` notation rather than just `div`.
