HTML to PHP Echo Generator

Convert an HTML fragment or document into PHP code that prints the supplied text. The generator wraps it in a single-quoted echo statement, so $name remains literal and apostrophes and backslashes are escaped.

Runs locally in your browser

Create the snippet

Paste markup to obtain a PHP snippet, including opening and closing PHP tags. Generation runs in browser JavaScript without sending the input in conversion requests; this page does not execute the generated PHP.

  1. Enter <p>Hello</p> and generate PHP. The statement inside the PHP tags is echo '<p>Hello</p>';.
  2. Copy the result into the appropriate place in a PHP file. Inside an existing PHP block, use just the echo statement to avoid nesting PHP opening tags.
  3. Regenerate after editing the input. Editing removes the previous result; Clear empties both fields.

How the generated string behaves

Literal text inside single quotes

An apostrophe becomes \' and a backslash becomes \\ in the PHP source. Double quotes, HTML character references and dollar expressions remain literal text. For example, $name in the input is printed as $name, not read as a PHP variable.

Existing line breaks stay inside the quoted string. No extra newline is appended to the printed content. The textarea normalizes actual CR and CRLF line endings to LF, so this is not a file-byte preservation tool.

Markup is wrapped, not interpreted

Tags, attributes, CSS and JavaScript in the input are carried into the string without HTML validation or resource downloads. Relative URLs are not rewritten. The result is displayed as text on this page.

PHP string escaping is not HTML sanitization. When the snippet is later served as HTML, its markup and scripts retain their usual meaning. This generator does not create application logic, database access or a template engine.

Questions about HTML to PHP

Will PHP code pasted in the input run?

No. Even <?php echo 'literal'; ?> is placed inside the output string as text. Execute PHP separately only in your own intended runtime.

What happens with an empty input?

The result is an empty PHP block, <?php followed by ?> on the next line. It prints no content.

Can I use accented text, Japanese or emoji?

Those characters remain in the generated source. Keep the PHP file and its response encoding consistent, for example UTF-8; the converter does not configure server encoding.
