My previous post is a bit misleading.

No and Yes.
NO: You don't have to escape PHP special characters in HTML.
YES: You need to escape PHP special characters in string. (Generally speaking)

You cannot write HTML like this in PHP code.
You can write HTML in conditional statement as my previous post.
You also could write it as follows
$html =<<<EOH
<table width="90%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"
align="center">
<tr bgcolor="#ebebd6">
....
EOH;
print $html;
Heredoc does not require to escape ", ',newline,etc even if it is similar to
string with " or '.
