hi there plz can any one explain me precisely what these 2 lines are doing

1.<div> <label for="idcuisine" class="cuisine" >Cuisine:</label>
2.<?php echo $this->lists['cuisine'] ;?> <value="cuisine" cols="10" rows="10" />

thanks in advance.

1. Starts a <div> element and follows it with a <label> element (consult any decent HTML reference to see what those are).
2. Has PHP echo the value of $this->lists['cuisine'] (implying that this line is inside a method of an object that has a property called "lists" that happens to be an array with an element called 'cuisine'), followed by a meaningless (for HTML) empty element called "value" (HTML doesn't have any such element).

You might want to read the PHP manual on classes and objects.
