Hi,
I design web sites but normally use html and sometimes web design software like namo 3 and frontpage express, but with the advent of php and mysql i thought i would broaden my range. But I hit a brick wall on my 1st attempt. I have downloaded mysql and have the green traffic light on to show it is working. I also downloaded php and installed that and had the grey box saying it had successfully installed.i placed the black dot in the microsoft pws on windows 9x me when installing the php, I am running windows XP home edition. I have just typed the following into my browser as if i were making a html web site.
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP test</title>
<meta name="generator" content="Namo WebEditor v3.0">
</head>
<body>
<p> this is an HTML line
<p>
<?php
echo "This is a PHP line";
phpinfo();
?>
</body>
</html>
And what is supposed to happen is it says This is an HTML line
This is a PHP line
but ....................all i get is the This is an HTML Line and nothing else. Can some one please help me i am going in circles because i just do not know what to do.
Many Thanks

Did you save your page as '{page}.php ?
Remember to use the PHP extention when using PHP in your pages. If that's not the case, then you've configured PHP wrong.
