hi All,
I am new to php and the using mozila firefox 3 , and IE 6 . But none
of them are able to show the output for the following p1.php file .
<html>
<head>
<title> PHP Test </title>
</head>
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
</html>
But the output of the program is the whole file as text?
What is going wrong here?
You are aware that PHP is a server side scripting language and that you
need a webserver like Apache to execute scripts on?

Opening PHP scripts in a webbrowser doesn't do the trick.

Bye!

I have installed apache on the linux machine on which the I am writing
this script and saving in the document root.
I guess, the apache installation will have to be done for php ???


Yes, you also have to install PHP - Apache has no idea how to parse PHP files.

I'd recommend you just install LAMP - Apache, MySQL and PHP on Linux. If you're not familiar with installing software on Linux and configuring Apache, it's much easier.
