'Display live output of PHP shell_exec in HTML scroll box

I have a web interface with two buttons "Ipconfig" and "ping google" which will each display the output of cmd with the appropriate command. Apart from that, I also have a scroll box which currently contains random posts. when the button is clicked, the output of cmd will appear under the scroll box, which can be seen in the image below.

web interface

how to make the output from cmd (based on which button is clicked) can be displayed in the scroll box (replacing the random text)?

Here is the body of the HTML (not including styling in css):

<body>
