Ability to retrieve tagName

Ideally, in jQuery’s style: $ele.prop('tagName')

[jeremy-dentel]

You could try doing something like…

var tagName = elem[0].tagName || elem[0].name;

Should work in browser & server.

tagName is DOM-specific. Cheerio’s internal structure has nothing to do with the DOM. If you’re looking for something that emulates the DOM, I would take a look at jQuery + JSDOM.

Thanks - yes, that indeed works. This issue is more about maintaining consistency with jQuery’s API.
