WP_HTML_Processor::get_token_type() │ public │ WP 6.6.0

Indicates the kind of matched token, if any.

This differs from get_token_name() in that it always returns a static string indicating the type, whereas get_token_name() may return values derived from the token itself, such as a tag name or processing instruction tag.

Possible values:

• #tag when matched on a tag.
• #text when matched on a text node.
• #cdata-section when matched on a CDATA node.
• #comment when matched on a comment.
• #doctype when matched on a DOCTYPE declaration.
• #presumptuous-tag when matched on an empty tag closer.
• #funky-comment when matched on a funky comment.

Method of the class: WP_HTML_Processor{}

No Hooks.

Return

String|null. What kind of token is matched, or null.

Usage

$WP_HTML_Processor = new WP_HTML_Processor();
$WP_HTML_Processor->get_token_type();
