What I would do then is leave all design out and start by all minimum required items and stuff. Furthermore start very, very static (center page).
While I’m not aware what specifically you’re after, and while I’m not aware of PHP at all, I’d have as well a look at the forge http://actionsforge.com which is the place for actions helping you out (in some cases). Perhaps there is an out-of-the-box thing such as connecting to MySQL:
http://actionsforge.com/actions/mysql-connect
Sometimes, it’s even better so seek for “entire” off-board solutions elsewhere (ready to roll php-scripts).
Finding the correct places for code-snippets may be a challenge, too. It requires a minimum understanding of the page-structure. I once did a lil series of videos, trying to cover those aspects. This is the episode about places and stuff:

So if function first - do function first, design is another discipline (that should already exists) and can be introduced later (this is my preferred modular thinking).
