HTML is what makes up a web page. It is a markup language that browsers use to format text, images, sounds, and what not into the layout you see.

PHP however is a scripting language that is often used in web sites to generate dynamic HTML (changing content) and work with the back-end of websites (session control, data retrieval, form checking, and so on).
