    Just as your code already does… Wrap what you want to happen in the if and else blocks so that it’s simply within those blocks:

    if($response->security->vpn) {
    echo " is a VPN.n";
} else {

?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"><big
 style="font-weight: bold;"><big><big><br>
Test Working!!!</big></big></big></div>
</body>
</html>

<?php } ?>

    Alternatively, as a matter of preference and readability, you can remove the else entirely and just conditionally return to end the script. For example:

    if($response->security->vpn) {
    echo " is a VPN.n";
    return;
}
?>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"><big
 style="font-weight: bold;"><big><big><br>
Test Working!!!</big></big></big></div>
</body>
</html>

    Unless I’m misunderstanding and you want the if condition to show the message and the page, while the else only shows the page? If that’s the case then what you have is simply a basic if condition to conditionally perform an operation:

    if($response->security->vpn) {
    echo " is a VPN.n";
}
?>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"><big
 style="font-weight: bold;"><big><big><br>
Test Working!!!</big></big></big></div>
</body>
</html>

    Any way you look at it, the structure is always the same. Operations that are conditionally performed (that is, only sometimes performed depending on some data) go in if or else blocks.

    A fairly simple change

    <?php
header('Content-type: text/plain');

$IP_ADDRESS = '127.0.0.1'; # Manual IP Address
$API_KEY = "";
$API_URL = 'https://vpnapi.io/api/' . $IP_ADDRESS . '?key=' . $API_KEY;

$response = file_get_contents($API_URL);
$response = json_decode($response);

if(!$response->security->vpn) {
    echo " is a VPN.n";
} else {
?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title></title>
</head>
<body>
<div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"><big
 style="font-weight: bold;"><big><big><br>
Test Working!!!</big></big></big></div>
</body>
</html>
}
?>

    Alternatively you could output the message as part of the page

    <?php
header('Content-type: text/plain');

$IP_ADDRESS = '127.0.0.1'; # Manual IP Address
$API_KEY = "";
$API_URL = 'https://vpnapi.io/api/' . $IP_ADDRESS . '?key=' . $API_KEY;

$response = file_get_contents($API_URL);
$response = json_decode($response);
$msg = '';
if(!$response->security->vpn) {
    $msg = " is a VPN.";
} else {
    $msg = 'is not a VPN.';
}
?>
