How to create a Word document header/footer in php

I have add header/footer are in document in php. but i have footer content twice in last page. I have user this code:-

    <html  xmlns:o='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office'
    xmlns:w='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word'
    xmlns='http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40'>
    <head>
        <title>Generate a document Word</title>
        <!--[if gte mso 9]-->
    <xml>
        <w:WordDocument>
            <w:View>Print</w:View>
            <w:Zoom>90</w:Zoom>
            <w:DoNotOptimizeForBrowser/>
        </w:WordDocument>
    </xml>
    <!-- [endif]-->
    <style>
        p.MsoFooter, li.MsoFooter, div.MsoFooter{
            margin: 0cm;
            margin-bottom: 0001pt;
            mso-pagination:widow-orphan;
            font-size: 12.0 pt;
            text-align: right;
        }


        @page Section1{
            size: 29.7cm 21cm;
            margin: 2cm 2cm 2cm 2cm;
            mso-page-orientation: landscape;
            mso-footer:f1;
        }
        div.Section1 { page:Section1;}
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <div class="Section1">
        <h1>Hello World!</h1>
    <br clear=all style='mso-special-character:line-break;page-break-after:always' />
    <div style='mso-element:footer' id="f1">
        <p class=MsoFooter>
            Page <span style='mso-field-code:" PAGE "'></span>
        </p>
    </div>
</body>
</html>



<?php
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;Filename=HelloWorld.doc");
?>

there is an error for the last page. It displays the footer content twice, after the content of the page also.

Yes, the error was in adding the "Page" text in the paragraph tag - Here is the code that works;

     <html  xmlns:o='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office'
     xmlns:w='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word'
     xmlns='http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40'>
     <head>
      <title>Generate a document Word</title>
      <!--[if gte mso 9]-->
     <XML>
     <w:WordDocument>
        <w:View>Print</w:View>
        <w:Zoom>90</w:Zoom>
        <w:DoNotOptimizeForBrowser/>
      </w:WordDocument>
     </xml>
     <!-- [endif]-->
     <style>
      p.MsoFooter, li.MsoFooter, div.MsoFooter{
        margin: 0cm;
        margin-bottom: 0001pt;
        mso-pagination:widow-orphan;
        font-size: 12.0 pt;
        text-align: right;
       }

      @page Section1{
        size: 29.7cm 21cm;
        margin: 2cm 2cm 2cm 2cm;
        mso-page-orientation: landscape;
        mso-footer:f1;
       }
      div.Section1 { page:Section1;}
      </style>
      </head>
      <body>
      <div class="Section1">
      <h1 class="Section1">Hello World!</h1>
      <p class="MsoNormal">test is a test </p>
      <br clear=all style='mso-special-character:line-break;page-break-after:always' 
      />
      <div class="MsoFooter" style='mso-element:footer' id="f1">
      <p class=MsoFooter align=right style='margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt; 
      text-align:right;line-height:normal'> 
      <span style=<span style='mso-field-code:" PAGE "'></span></p> 
      </div>
      </div>
      </body>
      </html>

      <?PHP
      header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word");
      header("Content-Disposition: attachment;Filename=HelloWorld.doc");
      ?>

You need to insert the HTTP Header at the top of the page. The HTTP Headers should be always declared before anything is printed on the page.

<?php
header("Content-type: application/vnd.ms-word");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;Filename=HelloWorld.doc");
?>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=Windows-1252">
<title>Hello World</title>
<style>
<!--
 /* Style Definitions */
 p.MsoNormal
    {margin:0cm;
    margin-bottom:.0001pt;
    font-size:12.0pt;
    font-family:"Times New Roman";}
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class=MsoNormal>Hello World</p>
</body>
</html>

Also, you can have a look at the PHPWord library. It'll make your life easier: https://github.com/PHPOffice/PHPWord
