The notion of using "PHP instead of HTML" doesn't make much sense.  PHP 
is not, and indeed cannot be, a replacement for HTML; it's a server-side 
language, whereas HTML is client-side.  It's entirely possible to have 
PHP *create* HTML code.  This may sound pedantic but I think it's
important to be clear about.
