How can the code provided be modified to achieve the desired result?

The issue with the provided code is that the variable `$number` is not being incremented correctly within the loop, resulting in an infinite loop. To solve this issue, we need to increment the variable `$number` by 1 in each iteration of the loop.

$number = 1;

while ($number <= 10) {
    echo $number . "<br>";
    $number++;
}
