HTML by itself doesn’t do processing and can’t handle arrays.

You have two options, if it’s at page creation, insert a php snippet that takes the array and generates appropriate HTML.

If it’s after the page has been drawn, use a framework like jQuery or JavaScript to get the array from the php file (learn about JSON in this case, it will facilitate the work, see documentation here) and then modify the DOM accordingly.

For example, if your script is accessed through AJAX (like jQuery), you could do something like:

<?php 
    $list = array( array('user_1', 1, 'continue'),
        array('user_2', 2 , '
        array('user_1', 3 , 'finish') 
    ); 
    echo json_encode($list);    
?>
