Functional question with PHP 3

[rvnguy]

I know very little about PHP, only that it is a server side language along the lines of CGI.

My question is about an application I have loaded into a hosted web site that I own. This app uses PHP and I can not see any HTML, SHTML, CSS, or any of the file types that I might be familar with. Web pages seem to be generated from the PHP coded files completely.

I am wondering if I now have to learn PHP coding to effect alterations to the look of displayed pages or am I missing something?

If I do, is there a good "interactive" coding app for PHP along the lines of Dreamweaver that could be recommended?

Also, is this a normal situation for PHP or possibly just the way it has been implemented by this application?

Thank You In Advance for your Consideration.
