I have a Joomla-based site and when I create a left module, paste the external code, I get a weird result. My site was created using PHP and MySQL, so I don't know why this is happening. Any Joomla folks out there that can help?

When I simply paste the html that's supposed to be generated by the php code, it displays properly. So at least I know the left module works. I've pasted the result so you all can see the unexpected code it's generating.
