If I understand what you're saying correctly, something like the below should be able to solve your issue. Split your PHP file into separate functions, include the full file (which would be function definitions rather than HTML that is included directly), and then call the function(s) for the parts that you want to show.

If necessary/relevant, you can also make an extra function like the below to allow for the full file to be loaded.
You can also/alternatively do something like this, where you define some variable before including the file. The variable will still be defined when the included file runs, so you can use this to pass information regarding what to include/exclude:
HTML FILE
PHP FILE
Code:
<?php
function printHeader()
{
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Test Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<?
}
function printFooter()
{
?>
</body>
</html>
<?
}

function printAll()
