Including HTML code with CSS in php function

Question

I am trying to write a PHP function, inside it, I am writing HTML code.

The problem is I am unable to link CSS file to the HTML code.

function foo() {
    // ---do some php stuff---
    echo '
    <html>
        <head>
           <link href="bar.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>
        </head>
        <body
             ---some code---
        </body>
    </html>';
}

What should be the correct approach?

The correct approach would be, not to put your HTML in functions. — Lawrence Cherone

function foo() {
// ---do some php stuff---

$link_address = 'correct-path-for-css-file-from-root-folder/bar.css';

echo '
<html>
    <head>
       <link href="' . $link_address . '" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/>
    </head>
    <body
         ---some code---
    </body>
</html>';

}

Now I have landed into one more problem, I want to use php tags again inside HTML. something like this <li><input type="text" placeholder="<?php echo $fz_variable?>"></li> How do I achieve that?

Something like this should work

<style>
 .classname {
 padding: etc;
 margin: etc;
 }
</style>

echo "<div class='classname'>text here</div>";
