I am required to make a website which supports some basic functions like download/upload.
So far I have only done the designing using basic HTML, CSS & Jquery functions..
However i have been asked to incorporate another students website within mine.. which performs functions like .. uploading documents, create new data specimen, update etc.. He has made his website completely on PHP ..
I would like help in understand how to combine his work with whatever i have gotten so far?

You can sure combine both of them.
PHP (and any other server side technology) is made to generate HTML contents and processing it on the server before returning the output to the client’s web browser.
I Strongly suggest that you learn PHP, at least the fundamentals. then you will get the whole idea; but to make things clear for now (Even though I don’t think they will be clear until you learn PHP first) let me show you how to combine PHP and HTML as quick examples:
1- You can combine them with PHP echo statement like this:
There is also another way(s) like:
2- Embedding PHP code within HTML
However, trust me on this, you will get a better idea of what is going on when you learn PHP as I mentioned above. Plus, there are couple of resources in the internet to start learning PHP from. (Google is your friend!)
Good luck!
