I am trying to add a <?php include("createserver.php"); ?> in position in my script. Every time I try to place it in it keeps giving me errors. Could some one fix it and make it show up in the correct spot?

I labeled the spot I would like this 'include' tag to be in with [PLEASE ADD INCLUDE HERE!]

First of all the way that you have set up your code is no very good, you should always try to avoid using millions of calls to the echo function unless you really have to. Instead you can actually just put the html code outside of the <?php ?> tags and it will be treated just like normal html.

I believe that the main issue you are having is trying to put a <?php tag within another one, which doesn't work because the php tags cannot go inside each other.

Below is your code, but I have removed all the calls to the echo() function, and added in the php section which will include the file. I also turned all of the \" into just " and I got rid of all of the \n code.

Note: If you have to use echo statements then remember that they can actually stretch accross multiple lines. eg.

PHP: 
<?php

echo " here is some html on the first line.
Here is some more html on the second line.
Even more html on the third line.";

?>

I'm working on helping him out in IRC as well, think we might've gotten it sorted :)

From what I can tell though we pretty much ended up with the same code you've got there.
