Html

The <html> HTML element represents the root (top-level element) of an HTML document, so it is also referred to as the root element. All other elements must be descendants of this element.

Basic Usage

Instantiate the Html class using Html::widget().

$html = Html::widget();

Or, block style instantiation.

<?= Html::begin() ?>
    // ... content to be wrapped by `html` element
<?= Html::end() ?>

Setting Attributes

Use the provided methods to set specific attributes for the a element.

// setting class attribute
$html->class('container');

Or, use the attributes method to set multiple attributes at once.

$html->attributes(['class' => 'container', 'style' => 'background-color: #eee;']);

Adding Content

If you want to include content within the html tag, use the content method.

$html->content('MyContent');

Or, use begin() and end() methods to wrap content.

<?= Html::begin() ?>
    My content
<?= Html::end() ?>

Rendering

Generate the HTML output using the render method, for simple instantiation.

$html = $html->render();

For block style instantiation, use the end() method, which returns the HTML output.

$html = Html::end();

Or, use the magic __toString method.

$html = (string) $html;

Common Use Cases

Below are examples of common use cases:

// adding multiple attributes
$html->class('external')->content('MyContent');

// using data attributes
$html->dataAttributes(['analytics' => 'trackClick']);
