How Can I run php on my xp laptop (on my browser) ?
i already installed php on my computer but every time i view the file with internet explorer of mozilla firefox it tries to download the file.

Thanks in advance.
 
You don't "run" PHP.

PHP is a scripting engine. It is used to parse and interpret PHP scripts. To get them to work on your system, you have to have a web server (Apache, for example) configured to use the PHP library and engine to display the scripts as web content.
 
you need to install apache server and php extrension on your system

you can download wamp and install

which will automatically install apache server, mysql and php in you system and you can run php file in your broeser through that server
