So you want to update it with the results of the PHP code?

You could use ajax and then use the .html() function to replace the div's content;

$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "yourFile.php",
  data: { /* any data goes here */ }
}).done(function( msg ) {
  $("#refresh").html(msg);
});

no no....i dont want any other php file .......i want to refresh the php code inside div tag

So you want the code in the div to be ran again?

That's what the script I posted does; you save the php code in the div to a php file.

Then you continuously make calls to the file through AJAX and update the div with the results.

This method is good because it helps for you not to mix languages, which is very taboo in web programming.

This will allow for a cleaner, more legible script.

Otherwise, you cannot refresh the php code in the div dynamically without refreshing the page; the PHP is parsed before the browser even renders the HTML, and is not editable after it has already been parsed.
