You have to transmit (HTTP post) the HTML string to your php files.
You can do this either with AJAX or put the string into a hidden input
field and do an ordinary user submit.
AJAX could look something like:
$.post("your.php", { 'html': $("#root").html() });
In the PHP file you can read the data with:
$html = $_POST['html'];
for more details see:
