How to display content from PHP to html - php

Question

So what i'am trying to do is that I have a PHP page that gets the ID for some text stored in a database (Varchar) and I wish to display this content in my HTML page. So I can update the content in the database and the edit take effect across the site.
PHP:
$id = $_GET['id'];
// do some validation here to ensure id is safe
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("images");
$sql = "SELECT review FROM reviews WHERE id=$id";
$result = mysql_query("$sql");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
mysql_close($link);
echo $row['review'];
I wish to display the content where is says "PHP content here"
HTML:
<div class="modal fade" id="albumModal1">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<!-- Top right close X -->
<div class="close-modal" data-dismiss="modal">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"</span>
</div>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<div class="modal-body">
<p class="modalTitle">The Beatles: Abby Road</p>
<img src="beatles.jpg" class="img-responsive center-block albumImgGrey">
<!-- Album 1's Review -->
<div class="modalText">
<p>Content upon content upon more content
<p>upon more content</p>
Content upon content upon more content
<p>upon more content</p>
<div class="starcolor">
<span>&#9733 &#9733 &#9733 &#9733 &#9733</span>
</div>
</p>
<!-- PHP content here....... -->
<!-- PHP content here....... -->
<!-- Bottom of the review links -->
<ul class="list-inline item-details">
<li>
Year of release: <strong>3000</strong>
</li>
<li>
Previous Album: <strong>Hippie tree</strong>
</li>
<li>
Following Album: <strong>Backup Plus++</strong>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Add this code:
<?php echo $row['review'];?>
where you have PHP content here, ensure you include the PHP tags.
STOP USING THE MYSQL EXTENSION, A KITTEN AND TWO PUPPIES DIE ANYTIME YOU DO THIS
Learn pdo or mysqli instead.

Answer 2

You can put your database result in a php file and then Web server will parse that php code and generate the required output.
It should be like.
output.php
<?php
<div class="modal fade" id="albumModal1">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<!-- Top right close X -->
<div class="close-modal" data-dismiss="modal">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove"</span>
</div>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<div class="modal-body">
<p class="modalTitle">The Beatles: Abby Road</p>
<img src="beatles.jpg" class="img-responsive center-block albumImgGrey">
<!-- Album 1's Review -->
<div class="modalText">
<p>Content upon content upon more content
<p>upon more content</p>
Content upon content upon more content
<p>upon more content</p>
<div class="starcolor">
<span>&#9733 &#9733 &#9733 &#9733 &#9733</span>
</div>
</p>
<!-- PHP content here....... -->
$id = $_GET['id'];
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("images");
$sql = "SELECT review FROM reviews WHERE id=$id";
$result = mysql_query("$sql");
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
mysql_close($link);
echo $row['review'];
<!-- PHP content here....... -->
<!-- Bottom of the review links -->
<ul class="list-inline item-details">
<li>
Year of release: <strong>3000</strong>
</li>
<li>
Previous Album: <strong>Hippie tree</strong>
