How to control style whereby PHP

Control styles whereby PHP
Hi everyone,
The following code displays a form to extract date from user and show the date within its’ div.
When the selected date is displayed, it is displayed above the form !
Why ?!
Question 1:
How do I place, via PHP, the selected date, within its’ div, beneath the form?
Question 2:
I’d like the text of the above mentioned div to be red. Can I add to .myDiv class a rule (or just change
The value) “(color: red ;)”. Can I do it whereby php code ?
Thanks a lot!

<?php
//form_date_to_php_div1.php
require_once '../myInitial.php';
require_once '../myLogin.php';
MYSQLI_SET_CHARSET($myConnection,'UTF8');
$myDate = time();
$myDate1 = date('Y-m-d  l', $myDate);

if (isset($_GET['dateToDiv']))
{
    $myDate1 = sanitize1($myConnection, $_GET['dateToDiv']);
    echo '<p class = "myDiv">'.$myDate1.'</p>'; 
}

function sanitize1($conn, $aDate)
{
    return htmlentities(sanitize2($conn, $aDate));
}
function sanitize2($conn, $aDate)
{
    if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) $aDate = stripslashes($aDate);
    return $conn->real_escape_string($aDate);
}
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>form_date_tp_php_div.php</title>
    <style>
        .myDiv
        {
            display:block;
            width: 10%;
            height: 10%;
            border: 1px solid red;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <form action = "form_date_to_php_div1.php" method = "GET">
        <input type = "date" name = "dateToDiv" />
        <input type="submit" value = "Send"/>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Php runs top to bottom. It shows above the form because that is where you put the code.

Thanks,
I thought HTML comes before PHP.
