Call/execute another page in php

I'm trying to call another php page without having one after the other.

I have pages a and b:

When b.php is run, it displays:

    <html b page tags>
    i'm b.php
    <html a page tags>
    i'm a.php
    </html a page tags>
    </html b tags>

You can see html tags from both a and b, one after the other.

Instead, when b.php is run it should display only the text within a's html tags. I.e., the output should be: 

    <html b page tags>
    i'm b.php
    i'm a.php
    </html b tags>

Maybe a bit late :

I use echo file_get_contents(" URL ");

this shows only the output, if the site is a script , this script is run on the remote server.

Thanks, I used header... I was missing something you have to put the php tag first before the html

   <html>
   </html>
   <?php
      //this will NOT work, the browser received the HTML tag before the script
      header( 'Location: http://www.yoursite.com/new_page.html' ) ;
   ?>

nice question :)

a.php

<html a page tgas>
<?php echo "i'm a.php"; ?>
</html a page tgas>

b.php

<html b page tags>
 <?php 
    echo "i'm b.php";
 ?>
</html b tags>
<?php
require'../a.php'; // incase it doesnt execute it will give you error telling WHY??
?>

It will keep both the page tag intact and will give you the output as you want..

on clicking b.php 

  <html b page tags>
  i'm b.php
  </html b tags>

  <html a page tags>
    i'm a.php
  </html a tags>

If you don't need a.php to run by itself, just remove html tags from a.php.

If you want a.php and b.php can run separately, you can do it like this.

a.php

<?php if (isset($being_included)): ?>
<html a page tags>
<? endif; ?>

<?php echo "i'm a.php"; ?>

<?php if (isset($being_included)): ?>
</html a page tags>
<? endif; ?>

b.php

<html b page tags>
<?php 
    echo "i'm b.php";
    $being_included = true;
    include '../a.php';
?>
</html b tags>

Hope it helps.

You don't need to put HTML tag in a.php if it's always included. meaning this:

a.php 

<?php echo "i'm a.php"; ?>

b.php 

<html b page tags>
<?php 
    echo "i'm b.php";
    include '../a.php';
?>
</html b tags>

html output:

<html b page tags>
    i'm b.php
    i'm a.php
</html b tags>
