HTML - a PHP-based HTML Markup generator
========================================

[](#html---a-php-based-html-markup-generator)

The main benefits are:

- no switching between php and html or echoing of html strings needed when you are inside your php stuff.
- Minimalistic usage attempt and helper functions. You should be able to generate more html markup with less php instructions while keeping full flexibility.
- Auto-indention. Unless you turn it of to save whitespace you will receive beautifully indented and super-readable markup for your web-projects.

The main downfalls are:

- Page generation takes longer, because every html-tag will run through a lot of php functions while being generated.
    (I use it along with wordpress and can not make a humanly noticeable difference in page loading speed when changing from a default wp-theme to one that uses the generator.)
- It may be difficult to learn how to use this, compared to writing pure html.

This project is inspired by the [CakePHP HtmlHelper](http://api.cakephp.org/class/html-helper).
