  <form method=POST action=admin.php bgcolor=\"C0C0C0\">
  username: <input type=text name=\"username\">
  password: <input type=password name=\"password\">
  <input type=submit>
  </form>";

just do it in the same way, write out the HTML tags within an echo and if you need to use a double quote(") or a single quote(if that is how you opened the echo)(') then put a (\) in front of it, you dont need an example

if it helps you:

echo "<p>Here is some text displayed in a paragraph tag </p>";

$str = "<table width='90%' align='center' border='1'>";
$str .= "<tr>";
$str .= "<td>some text here</td>";
$str .= "</tr>";
$str .= "</table>";

echo $str;

PM me if you need more help.
