Separating HTML from PHP is the best method  It s less confusing and easy to debug    lt  php   while  var        gt         lt div gt            lt h3 gt  lt a href  User lt  php echo  i   gt   gt  lt  php echo  i   gt  lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt            lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt        lt  div gt    lt  php    i          gt

Here I have added code  the way you want line by line  The    helps you to echo multiple lines of code   html     lt div gt     html      lt h3 gt  lt a href  quot   quot  gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt     html      lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt     html      lt  div gt     html      lt div gt    echo  html

You need to escape the   so that PHP doesn t recognise them as part of your PHP code  You do this by using the   escape character   So  your code would look like this   echo       lt div gt           lt h3 gt  lt a href       gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt           lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt       lt  div gt       lt div gt

This will also work fine with double quotes  To echo any html tag with double quotes we just need to remember one thing  Do not use any other double quotes  quot   in the middle   lt  php     echo  quot       lt div gt           lt h3 gt  lt a href  https   stackoverflow com questions 3931351 how-to-echo-in-php-html-tags  gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt           lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt           lt  div gt       lt div gt  quot     gt   Notice here the link inside the PHP echo is enclosed within the single quotes  This is the precaution you should take while using the double quotes for this purpose

You have a variety of options  One would be to use PHP as the template engine it is     lt  php       Draw the page   gt   lt div gt     lt h3 gt  lt a href     gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt     lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt   lt  div gt   lt  php      Done drawing    gt    Another would be to use single quotes  which let you leave double quotes unquoted and also support newlines in literals     lt  php   echo   lt div gt     lt h3 gt  lt a href     gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt     lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt   lt  div gt      gt    Another would be to use a HEREDOC  which leaves double quotes untouched  supports newlines  and also expands any variables inside    lt  php   echo  lt  lt  lt EOS  lt div gt     lt h3 gt  lt a href     gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt     lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt   lt  div gt  EOS    gt

If you want to output large quantities of HTML you should consider using heredoc or nowdoc syntax  This will allow you to write your strings without the need for escaping    echo  lt  lt  lt EOD You can put  s and  s here if you like  EOD    Also note that because PHP is an embedded language you can add it between you HTML content and you don t need to echo any tags    lt div gt       lt p gt No PHP here  lt  p gt       lt  php      name    Marcel       echo   lt p gt Hello  name  lt  p gt          gt   lt  div gt    Also if you just want to output a variable you should use the short-hand output tags  lt    var  gt   This is equivalent to  lt  php echo  var    gt

Try the heredoc-based solution  echo  lt  lt  lt HTML  lt div gt       lt h3 gt  lt a href  quot   quot  gt First lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt       lt div gt Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet  lt  div gt       lt  div gt   lt div gt  HTML

You can replace   lt   with  amp lt  and   gt   with  amp gt   For example  echo  quot  amp lt div amp gt  quot    The output will be visible  lt div gt   For longer strings  make a function  for example function example  input         output   str replace   gt      amp gt    str replace   lt      amp lt     html        return  output     echo example  your html    Don t forget to put backslashes href   quot    quot  or do it with single quotes href     or change it in a function too with str replace
