    <pre><code>&lt;?php if (isset($_GET['outputHtml'])) { echo "&lt;p class='commentBox'&gt;" . "This is from external PHP" . "&lt;/p&gt;"; echo "&lt;p class='commentBox'&gt;" . "This is also from external PHP" . "&lt;/p&gt;"; include 'writephp.php'; } </code></pre> <p>This in your write.php is not correct, see <code>writephp.php</code> is a complete HTML page with <code>&lt;html&gt;</code> <code>&lt;head&gt;</code> and <code>&lt;body&gt;</code> tags and you are including it after echoing some <code>&lt;p&gt;</code> tags, that won't make your new boxes appear magically inside the body of the page, you would be creating some invalid markup with the two <code>&lt;p&gt;</code> at the beginning of the file followed by the <code>&lt;!DOCTYPE&gt;&lt;html&gt;</code> etc...</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong></p> <p>Regarding the update to your question that now reads <strong>"How place output from an external php file to a specific place on the page"</strong></p> <p>As @Robert Seddon-Smith correctly noted in his answer, using <code>include</code> will make the content appear exactly at the point when the call is made, so if you wanted to include your new boxes in your main file then the call to <code>include</code> should be backwards, that is, you should include the content inside the main file, you can use this example to test it:</p> <p>Modify <code>write.php</code> to just echo the boxes when the $_GET variable is present</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php if (isset($_GET['outputHtml'])) { echo "&lt;div class='commentBox'&gt;" . "This is from external PHP" . "&lt;/div&gt;"; echo "&lt;div class='commentBox'&gt;" . "This is also from external PHP" . "&lt;/div&gt;"; } ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>And make the include call in your main file <code>writephp.php</code> </p> <pre><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt; &lt;html lang="en"&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta charset="utf-8"&gt; &lt;title&gt;Test Php &lt;/title&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="writephp.css"&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div id="allContent"&gt; &lt;?php for($i=0; $i&lt;3; $i++): ?&gt; &lt;div class="commentBox"&gt; &lt;p&gt; Just a box&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;?php endfor; ?&gt; &lt;?php include 'write.php'?&gt; &lt;a href="writephp.php?outputHtml"&gt;Php output&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>This will include your two new boxes inside the container when you click in the link. </p> <p>Also you will note that there is nothing special about styling content from an included file, that is because in the end all the markup is rendered as a single HTML page, it doesn't matter if the content is echoed from the main page or the included file, it will obey any rules in your CSS</p>

    1. COThanks, I learned a little from this answer but it's still not there. My goal is learning php but I am getting stuck with css formmatting. This is just an example of my not understanding how to format html that is coming from external php code.I tried to make up a simple example just outputting some boxes to demonstrate. So my question is still how do I properly do this when the html is from php from an external file.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
