Call to object function, want to PHP interpret returned string

Hi

At the top of a webpage I have:

<?php
include_once("furniture.php");
$myFurniture = new furniture();
echo $myFurniture->getTop("my company title");
?>

to deliver the first lines of HTML, everything in HEAD and the first
bits of page furniture (menu, etc).

In the furniture object in getTop(), I want to return a string that
includes the CSS file that I call with an include_once. But the
include_once isn't interpreted by PHP, it's just outputted. So from:

        $toReturn = "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN' ........
            <?php
                include_once('styles3.txt');
            ?>
            .......";

        return $toReturn;

I get

                        <?php
                                include_once('styles3.txt');
                        ?>

in my code.

Do I really have to break up my echo $myFurniture->getTop("my company title"); call to getTopTop,
then include my CSS, then call getTopBottom, or can I get PHP to interpret that text that came back?

PS. I may be stupid, this may be obvious .. I don't program PHP every day

Thanks in advance for your help :-)

Cheers
J
