True. Still, whether you're writing it by hand or generating it with PHP, you still need the HTML. No HTML, no viewable output. The PHP can control which HTML to display and can string it together for you if you've coded it to do so, but it can't take its place.

I never said PHP could take HTML's place. You can however use PHP to generate 100% of the HTML. In other words you can create a page without writing any actual HTML. You have to write the PHP code to generate the HTML though (so in a sense you still are).

I just want to add another advantage of using PHP. Being a server side script, PHP is secures as the script is executed in the server instead of in your browser. Using HTML, everyone will view any code in the page source.

HTML is a language used to describe to a browser how to display text and other objects in a browser window. It is not a programming language. HTML works on a client computer (the system on which the page is being viewed).

PHP is a scripting language, and can be used to create web pages written in HTML. PHP runs on the server (the system from which the page comes), and is a full-fledged programming language.
