Is it advisable to use jQuery for handling DOM manipulation in PHP applications?

Using jQuery for DOM manipulation in PHP applications is not advisable because jQuery is a JavaScript library and PHP is a server-side language. It is better to handle DOM manipulation on the client-side using vanilla JavaScript or a framework like React or Vue.js. This separation of concerns helps maintain a clean and organized codebase. 

// Example of handling DOM manipulation in PHP
<?php
// PHP code to generate HTML
echo '<div id="content"></div>';

// JavaScript code for DOM manipulation
echo '<script>
    document.getElementById("content").innerHTML = "Hello, World!";
</script>';
?>
