Table Of Contents
selector
A String containing a CSS selector. See http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css_selectors.asp
for CSS selectors and combinations of CSS selectors.
context
A result set (the result of another query) or an HTML string. If the passed context is not a result
set or HTML string it will be coerced to a String and interpreted as HTML.
Examples
This script performs a query in the results of another query.
var table = query("table");
var rows = query("tr", table);
var cells = query("td", rows);
Since the results object also is the result of a query (for elements that match the selector of the
script), it can be passed as context. For example in a script with the selector “table”.
var rows = query("tr", results);
query(html)
Creates a new HTML element on the fly from the provided string of raw HTML, and returns the
new element.
html
A String containing a HTML element. Tags that can contain other elements should be paired
with a closing tag.
Example
The following script adds a paragraph to the results (elements that match the selector of the
script).
results.append("<p>This is a new paragraph.</p>');
