  Description     : perform jQuery-like queries on HTML::Element trees

The HTML::Query module is an add-on for the HTML::Tree module set. It provides
a simple way to select one or more elements from a tree using a query syntax
inspired by jQuery. This selector syntax will be reassuringly familiar to
anyone who has ever written a CSS selector.

HTML::Query is not an attempt to provide a complete (or even near-complete)
implementation of jQuery in Perl (see Ingy's pQuery module for a more
ambitious attempt at that). Rather, it borrows some of the tried and tested
selector syntax from jQuery (and CSS) that can easily be mapped onto the
look_down() method provided by the HTML::Element module.

The package will be maintained under the umbrella of the Debian Perl Group.

This package is being added to Debian as it is dependency for CSS::Inliner which
will be used by v5.0.4 of Request Tracker.
