Well, it are totally different things. So it is rather useless to compare the difficulty.

The difference: html is interpreted in the browser, php is interpreted on the server.
- If you need anything to show in a browser, you need html.
- If you need any server processing on your webbased system (such as reading a database), you need a programming language that the server can execute. PHP is a common choice, but there are others to choose from.

For web design you can choose both language but if you want advance functionality then you have to go for php. You can integrate html into php. So i suggest go for both and it will give benefit if you learn php and html.

HTML is easier than PHP. But if you focus properly on PHP and give time to it then it can also be learn easily.

I think HTML coding is easy than PHP and if you know HTML you can easily code with PHP.

HTML is very basic and anybody can do it ...
Where as php is little bit tricky than html but as tough.....
HTML is the markup language and Php is the language code that embeds html and texts to design web sites.
Php runs on server where as html runs on browser.
