Hi, I'm a total newbie to XAMPP.
I downloaded XAMPP onto my Win XP Pro SP2 machine. It installs ok. Everything seems to work. Apache server is running. MySQL is running. PHP is running. PHPmyAdmin works fine. I can create databases and tables etc. using phpMyAdmin ok. But, when I use Notepad or Wordpad to create a little test file, any HTML statements in the file come up in Firefox ok but...none of the PHP code between the <?php and ?> tags executes at all. No error messages are given...nothing...as if the PHP code was not there at all. I'm saving the test file into c:\xampp\htdocs if that makes any difference. Anybody have any idea what is going wrong here? This is driving me crazy. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give. Many thanks. Joe
