Can PHP be used instead of HTML?

The question is about PHP

Answer:

No, because both PHP and HTML serve different purposes. Whereas HTML is being used for laying out and presenting web content, structuring the layout, text images, and links that users see in their browsers, PHP is a server-side scripting language that runs behind the scenes, generating dynamic content based on data or user input, among other tasks, before the actual HTML render to the browser. PHP generates or manipulates HTML and does not replace it.
