I use PHP because I can manipulate web pages more with PHP than HTML, like including another webpage to the current page with the command include. You can do the same with HTML but have to use bulky <object> command with register keys that's hard to remember. And coming from C++ background, I was able to understand PHP faster compare to HTML commands--especially love the FOR loop and IF, THEN commands.
However, I've been meaning to ask this question: do search engines like HTML page more than PHP page? I made few websites years ago, at the same time, one with PHP and the other one with HTML. Google, it seems, liked HTML pages better than PHP. My backlink search shows HTML cached by Google and none of my PHP cached by Google... Am I dreaming? So, ultimately do you build with HTML (file ending) or PHP (file ending) which to choose? QUOTE(habbovalley @ Jul 3 2007, 11:36 PM)  Well being a HTML its easy for me but what do people use the most?

HTML is a markup language. It was made to display text and stuff like that in a fancy way. PHP was made as a scripting language to do things like access files, solve mathematical problems, and do repetitive tasks easily. If you're referring to the use of PHP on the web, well, you're going to need to use HTML with PHP anyways if you want to do anything worthwhile. HTML by its own isn't very convienient to update.
Tetraca,
Thanks for the pointer. I guess since I use mainly to "calculate" my pages depending on the result, such as random file displaying or visitor's status value (whatever it may be) I just started to use PHP and spit out HTML command using the ECHO. This made me forget your point--PHP is really a scripting language where PHP still depends on HTML markups to render web pages. I did find an answer to my question above...PHP or HTML and does it matter to SEO. QUOTE I will say though, that theirs no seo reasoning behind changing from php to html, I don't know why people worry with that. Mod_rewrite is only worth it to get url's without multiple variables. SourceAt the worse case, I can always rewrite .php to show .html by .htaccess rewrite.
It depends on what web page its for. Like if you're doing a web page for some login page then use php, but just a normal page like some introduction about your self with no advanced features i.e. guestbook. Then use html. To me html is easier, but php gives you more functionality. Also if you don't want people looking at your webpage's code use php, only advanced users that know how to create web browsers can know your 'code'
Well as said for almost any website you need HTML, unless its one of those fancy pure css sites. So to be fair virtually 1OO% of websites use HTML so in that sense HTML is more popular, now if the question is about which language i prefer coding in i would say php because i like solving problems more than displaying info.
but in a comparison of sites with html and those using php HTML would win in terms of numbers of websites using it because you dont need t use php to make a website.
I use HTML and CSS at the moment because I don't know PHP yet. I would like to learn it soon so it can update stats atuomatically so I don't have to. Example, I plan to make a fanlisting soon and PHP is great with updating member stats right away. There's lots of other reasons. I'll still use HTML though.
while php is more flexible but it is more confusing than html and it requires a big download to code from my desktop so i prefer to use html. if i realy need php i normaly just download the scripts like wordpress or watever
I don't think such a question could actually be asked... It's as if you are comparing to objects of different nature... HTML is a markup language which is the basic knowledge in web-designing; it is indispensable. While on the other hand, PHP is a server-side scripting language which allows you to execute scripts on your website. Now if you want to keep it simple for you while coding your website, you can use HTML and at the same time, use PHP... each in its right place and for its right cause.
I just want to point to something... when you want to compare, you have to choose items of like-nature. To be clearer, you can compare PHP to ASP, HTML to XML... something like that.

I myself use them both alongside each other but not all the time it depends what I am designing if its a clan/game based feature i will use both but if its a security module etc i will use php and html if needed, but that question is really hand in hand. i think using one or the another is the wrong way to go but everyone is different and they not think like I do.

QUOTE (Ho-oh'sRealm @ Oct 31 2009, 09:10 PM) As usual, PHP is great for making dynamic websites, which is exactly what it's for. It's very versatile, has many more uses than HTML does, and of course, often produces better results. Technically speaking, it's a fairly complicated language, and while I'm still learning it, I find it quite hard. Very hard in comparison to HTML, though xD And well, PHP is a very strong web language, in my opinion. HTML, on the other hand, is the most basic web language there is, and it has really simple commands. Yes, it's still has a very diverse range of uses, especially for a simple yet elegant looking home page. If you couple HTML with CSS, it looks great. I use HTML in general for embedding javascript, videos, images and flash, and for some other things too. Eh, I tend to use HTML more, although I use PHP for harder things... agreed. PHP and such is for scripts mainly. like a web script and forums. it can be hard but once you have mastered it everything else fades away and all you want to use is PHP  PHP is a server side, HTML embedded scripting language used to create dynamic Web Pages. In an HTML document, PHP script is enclosed within special PHP tags. Because PHP is embedded within tags, the author can jump between HTML and PHP and is similar to ASP and Cold Fusion instead of having to rely on heavy amounts of code to output HTML. And, because PHP is executed on the server, the client cannot view the PHP code. PHP can perform any task that any CGI program can do, but its strength lies in its compatibility with many types of databases. Also, PHP can talk across networks using IMAP, SNMP, NNTP, POP3, or HTTP. agreed. HTML is the simplest form of web code there is and is very easy to learn. able to master it in less then a month from scrach. it does have a lot of limits. so you are bound to run into situations where you will have to use a more advanced form of scripting such as PHP.

QUOTE i think php is good for one who wants a simple and personal site but for a company or a gig site you will need html or .xml according to me go with html as its nice and easy to use and also very powerful Wrong way around. HTML is for very, very simple sites with just a few pages. PHP is for complex sites with user interactions (forms) and stuff like that. There can be no opinion here, this is cold hard fact!
