Show HTML Source Code via PHP or Java

Question

I'm trying to do something that should be pretty simple.

I currently have a php form that takes the field entries and simply places them in a html style table on the output page. This page has zero styling since the CSS does that and after I output the table, I view the source code in Chrome and then copy and paste it into my email templates to send out ranking tables in my emails.

Now, I have someone else doing this same process but they are using Safari and not chrome. The same can be achieved but rather trying to explain this process to them, I would like to a incorporate a better solution.

On the same page that would display the table (with which I view the source code), Would there be a way to display the html source itself? Thus eliminating the need to manually view the source after the page has been rendered?

The exact code I'm using is:

A common approach is to escape the HTML to be displayed using HTML entities and then rendering it by echoing / printing it.

For PHP, you can use PHP's htmlentities() function.
For Java, you can use StringEscapeUtils from Apache Commons Lang or htmlEscape from Spring HtmlUtils.

Here is a short PHP example. This is wrapped in a

tag to display as preformatted text which is useful for formatting purposes.

Cell 1Cell 2';
    echo htmlentities($table);

?>

If you want syntax highlighting, you can add a library like highlight.js.
