News Update script with PHP

[crafty bison]

I had the News Updater working fine in my .html page, but then I decided I wanted to switch to a .php in order to use the Include function for the page layout. Despite keeping everything present and correct inside the .php file for the script, when I view it uploaded to the web, instead of rotating through the separate messages, all are shown concurrently over the top of each other.

Have I done something wrong, or does this script not work in a .php file?

Why on Earth wouldn't it? PHP just outputs data - usually just HTML. A user agent doesn't care where that output comes from, whether it be a static file or a dynamic one, as either way the process is transparent.

It would be far more useful to see the page in question.

Sorry for my ignorance regarding this; I'm new to coding websites.

Hmmm just by looking at the source code I don't see where the problem is occuring. Are you certain the script works if you do not include it via PHP? Like Mwinter says, it shouldn't matter if done correctly though.
