Preferred DOM library for parsing html pages with node.js? - dom

I'm looking for libraries that parse html pages ( with some leniency, not strict xml parsers ). Can anyone recommend any?
Edit: Came across jsdom

I recently heard about jsdom via Video: Elijah Insua — jsdom: a CommonJS Implementation of the DOM from the Yahoo Developer Network.

How to implement inversifyJS basic example intro html page

I can't find example with html page or any live example for browsers (html page).
I need basic example just what to import lib and make one class.
I found on http://inversify.io :
InversifyJS compiles to clean, simple JavaScript code which runs on
any browser, in Node.js, or in any JavaScript engine that supports
ECMAScript 5 (or newer).
To use InversifyJS in a web browser you are going to need Webpack. You need to bundle your app just like when working with any other frontend library these days. We don't have an official example but I found this blog https://blog.kloud.com.au/2017/03/22/dependency-injection-in-vuejs-app-with-typescript/ and the code is available on GitHub https://github.com/devkimchi/Vue.js-with-ASP.NET-Core-Sample/tree/master/src/VueJsTsIocSample

how to do design in XML instead of Html in nativescript with Angular?

Is it possible to use XML instead of Html for design the screen in nativescript with angular app template?
Thank you for reading, looking forward to reading your responses!
The answer is yes: Angular is perfectly happy to accept XML for its templates in NativeScript -- we are doing that at my company Yollerhorn right now as we develop our mobile app, and we made the decision to help disambiguate our web templates from our native templates. The one caveat is that we've run into some strange errors around commenting and unrecognized XML, but in general it should work just fine.
Even though you're adding your user interface to HTML files in a NativeScript with Angular project, you're not writing HTML.
NativeScript markup is XML. Technically HTML is XML, but NativeScript won't understand it and a web browser won't understand NativeScript XML.
Hopefully that makes sense and answers your question.
Best,

JST Template Engine with Slim & Coffeescript

This wiki page explains how to create a directory of Javascript templates that can be accessed from a JST object in the DOM:
https://github.com/marionettejs/backbone.marionette/wiki/Using-jst-templates-with-marionette
JST stands for Javascript Templates. This feature — available by default in Rails 3.1 (see notes)— allows you to distribute your Javascript templates as ready-to-use functions in your scripts.
This mechanism is very useful because it avoids having to download templates asynchronously or to distribute them in the source code of your pages.
(Please refer to the post for further info)
The example template engines given include pairing simple HTML with embedded Javascript and Coffeescript, and HAML files with embedded Coffeescript.
I am wondering if there is a similar template engine available that uses Slim and Coffeescript, that would allow me to achieve the same result.
For those interested, I have found an engine that does what I was looking for: https://github.com/jfirebaugh/skim
It's specifically for rails projects (for the time being), but enables the creation of Javascript Templates using Slim.
It's similar to haml_coffee (https://github.com/netzpirat/haml_coffee_assets), just uses slim instead of haml

How to begin using HTML DOM

I have trouble understanding how some things are related.
For a Wordpress plugin, I would like to use HTML DOM on content from wp_remote_open to find a string.
In order to use DOM, does it have to be enabled by my webhost? or do I include a DOM parsing script with the plugin?
I was thinking that if it needs to be enabled by the webhosting company, I would rather use a regular expression to find the string because then it would be compatible for everyone's installation.
DOM has nothing to do with your hosting provider or infrastructure. It is merely a model representing your HTML document. Most modern browsers support DOM. See more at the XML DOM introduction

Has anybody tried the new MVC HTML5 Toolkit from Codeplex?

I saw a tweet today referring to the MVCHTML5 helpers on Codeplex. I'm wondering if
Anybody has tried this out yet?
Does it add any real significant benefit over the default HTML helpers?
What are the actual HTML5 aspects of this library?
I would definitely recommend checking it (I am a little biased as I wrote it!).
But it's just a simple DLL that you include in your MVC project and it will give you all the benefits of HTML5 input types. If the browser doesn't support it - it will just fall back to a normal textbox.
To answer your questions though, it only adds a benefit if you are looking to add HTML5 functionality to your application or website. It uses the exact same syntax and the normal HTML helpers that ASP.net MVC comes with, but this just makes life easier if you are looking to add HTML5 functionality to your site.
Here is another link regarding HTML5 and the input types: http://diveintohtml5.ep.io/
I've just been trying it out, it doesn't seem to support the Required DataAnnotations for unobtrusive client side validation
