How to Convert HTML to Text PHP

PHP is an extremely powerful language that can be used to build dynamic content.

PHP, or PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, is a server-side web programming language that outputs HTML. In fact, you can use PHP and HTML in the same file. Outputting text in PHP requires a simple command, just as it does in HTML. By using such a command, you can easily take HTML text and write the same thing in PHP.

Instructions

1. Find the HTML text you are interested in. It will most likely be denoted by style tags, such as paragraph (<p>...</p>) or a specific heading type defined in the CSS (<h1>...</h1>).

2. Type "<?php" at the beginning of the file and "?>" at the end of the file. (no quotes)

3. Re-save the file with the file extension ".php". (no quotes)

4. Rewrite or paste the text of interest into the following PHP command, which outputs HTML text:
   echo "insert text here";

   Make sure to include the quotation marks and semicolon, as these are necessary for proper PHP syntax.

5. Re-upload the file to your web server or open the .php file in a web browser.
