php w/ <select> in div?

[dasein]

I'm trying to run a readout of a db which runs fine as an individual script. When I embed it in PHP inside an html div container, it bails when it encounters the first ">" and simply outputs the PHP characters from there through the "?>". The rest of the html runs fine before and after. For example, this line

 

echo "<select>";

 

would output

 

";

 

and any other php script up to the ?> end, after which it renders html fine. If I run the script as a separate php file, it runs as expected. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Post your code.

What's the name of the file that contains the code. If it doesn't end in ".php", the php processor won't be invoked (in most cases).
