PHP CSS Selector Library? [closed]

Question

Is there a PHP class/library that would allow me to query an XHTML document with CSS selectors? I need to scrape some pages for data that is very easily accessible if I could somehow use CSS selectors (jQuery has spoiled me!). Any ideas?

Answer 1

After Googling further (initial results weren't very helpful), it seems there is actually a Zend Framework library for this, along with some others:

• DOM-Query
• phpQuery
• pQuery
• QueryPath
• Simple HTML DOM Parser
• Ultimate Web Scraper Toolkit
• Zend-Dom

Answer 2

XPath is a fairly standard way to access XML (and XHTML) nodes, and provides much more precision than CSS.

Answer 3

Another one:

Answer 4

A great one is a component of symfony 2, CssSelector\Parser^{­Introduction}. It converts CSS selectors into XPath expressions. Take a look =)
