I have a php script which gets data from a DB (it works) but need to write the retrieved values to textboxes in an HTML form (pure html form, no php). How do I reference the html file and its text boxes from my PHP script?

PHP is exactly for that purpose. You can not make a webpage dynamically with just HTML. You would achieve what you want when "print" a PHP Variable in an HTML input field.
So you create a .php file and write down your HTML. And when you want your variable in your fields you do this:
<input value="<?= $yourVariableName; ?>">
That's the ways how you can print PHP variables into HTML.
