No, they can&#8217;t. <strong>PHP<\/strong> is a server-side scripting language, the browser never actually sees the <strong>php<\/strong> code.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, why do I see PHP code in browser? You&#8217;ve written your first PHP program, but when you go to run it, all you see in your browser is the code\u2014the program doesn&#8217;t actually run. When this happens, the most common cause is that you are trying to run PHP somewhere that doesn&#8217;t support <strong>PHP<\/strong>.Go to the location of your PHP file, then click the PHP file to select it. Click Open. It&#8217;s in the bottom-right corner of the window. This will open the <strong>PHP<\/strong> file in Notepad++, allowing you to <strong>view<\/strong> the file&#8217;s code and make any necessary edits.<\/p>\n<h2>How do I check my PHP code?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KAYvHGsJVe4\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How can I read PHP file in localhost?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Open up any Web browser on your desktop and enter &#8220;localhost&#8221; into the address box. The browser will open a list of files stored under the &#8220;HTDocs&#8221; folder on your computer. Click on the link to a PHP file and open it to run a script.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I view localhost?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To access the server from itself, use http:\/\/localhost\/ or http:\/\/127.0.0.1\/ . To access the server from a separate computer on the same network, use http:\/\/192.168.X.X where X.X is your server&#8217;s local IP address. You can find the sever&#8217;s local IP address (assuming it&#8217;s Linux) by running hostname -I . 127.0.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How can I see my localhost page?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The simplest way is to add a virtual directory to your default web site within IIS. Point that virtual directory to the directory to which you installed\/copied your website. The you can either browse from IIS or type the virtual directory name (preceeded by localhost\/) into your browser address bar.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I turn PHP on?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Step 1: Edit the PHP configuration file. sudo gedit \/etc\/apache2\/mods-enabled\/php5.conf.  <\/li>\n<li>Step 2: Save changes, and exit emacs. control-x, control-s.<\/li>\n<li>Step 3: Restart Apache, and you are done. sudo \/etc\/init.d\/apache2 restart.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why PHP file is not opening in browser?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>PHP is not installed properly on your system or the server is not properly installed. PHP module isn&#8217;t loaded in your apache. You did not put your scripts in the right place. Put your files in \/XAMPP\/htdocs and then point your browser to: http:\/\/localhost\/my_php_script.php.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can you run PHP without a server?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>You can make a PHP script to run it without any server or browser. You only need the PHP parser to use it this way. This type of usage is ideal for scripts regularly executed using cron (on *nix or Linux) or Task Scheduler (on Windows). These scripts can also be used for simple text processing tasks.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I know if PHP is working?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Make sure the Web server is running, open a browser and type http:\/\/SERVER-IP\/phptest.php. You should then see a screen showing detailed information about the PHP version you are using and installed modules.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why is PHP not working in HTML?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The answer is in fact so simple you would want to bang your head: Simply change the file extension from &#8220;. html&#8221; to &#8220;. php&#8221;!!! Remember that you can build a webpage entirely out of PHP and all JavaScript and stuff built off JavaScript like, JQuery, bootstrap, etc will work.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I know if my PHP code is working?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Make certain XAMPP is installed.  <\/li>\n<li>If XAMPP is running, close it.  <\/li>\n<li>Put your PHP files into your htdocs folder.  <\/li>\n<li>Double click on your icon for XAMPP or open your XAMPP.  <\/li>\n<li>Just to the right of your Apache heading, you will see the Apache web server.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I open a PHP file in Windows 10?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Hence, you can open php files with Windows 10 supplied Notepad or Wordpad. Third party editors such as Notepad++ are generally used to code with these kind of files. You can start Notepad or Wordpad > File > Open > Select the php file and open.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do I open a PHP file in Firefox?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>But first, right-click any php-file->Open with&#8230; ->choose program, then select Firefox in the list.
