HTML5 PHP
A standards-compliant HTML5 parser and serializer written entirely in PHP for server-side HTML processing.
What is HTML5 PHP?
Masterminds/html5-php is a robust HTML5 parser and serializer library built entirely in PHP. It enables server-side processing of HTML5 documents by providing reliable parsing into DOMDocument objects and serialization back to well-formed HTML5 output, adhering closely to the HTML5 specification while correcting some HTML automatically. It is designed for practical use in production environments, with over five million downloads.
PHP developers working on server-side applications that need to parse, manipulate, or generate HTML5 content, such as web scrapers, content management systems, or tools processing mixed PHP/HTML documents. It is also suitable for those requiring interoperability with libraries like QueryPath for jQuery-style DOM traversal.
Developers choose HTML5-PHP for its standards compliance, stability, and comprehensive feature set including both high-level and low-level APIs (like SAX-like event-based parsing). Its unique selling points are seamless integration with PHP's DOMDocument, support for legacy HTML tags, and the ability to handle namespaces and mixed PHP/HTML documents, making it a versatile choice for server-side HTML5 processing.
