Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... it's not PHP functionality that makes html ugly as shown at validator.w3.org. It's the person's html/php coding ability to avoid coding mistakes.
Basically, PHP gives functionality. A part of that functionality is for the php programmer to make correct HTML as output so the browser will render a page as output correctly. If the php programmer is a real bonehead and he/she can't instruct php to return good HTML that doesn't make a HTML validator from coughing up errors, it's not PHP's fault, it's the coders. I've been programming PHP for quite a while now and I can't think of a single regular thing in PHP that'd cause any browser (Netscape or IE) to hang. Any time that I've had problems, it's because I didn't know the limits of what I was coding to try and do something that is outside the possibilities. Whether it's storing information in a database, retrieving information from a database, sending PHP headers to redirect to another page or sending PHP headers to set a cookie, etc. You have to know when you can do things in PHP and when you can't. If web pages hang in a browser, it's the buggy PHP code that is interpreted that's causing the problems. Not PHP itself. It's like putting gasoline w/ water in a gas tank. It's not the engine's fault it's spitting and sputtering. It's the fuel supply.
