A web browser can't run/execute PHP by itself, you need a webserver with PHP capabilities.

A very easy way to get started with this on windows is to install XAMPP. It's easy to install and comes with tons of documentation.

~~Open the saved file with a browser.~~

EDIT: My mistake, it was late at night yesterday: you do need more than a web browser to run php (something I took for granted since I use OS X and had enabled things a while back)

but if it's just html a web browser is fine, but it doesn't hurt to get php capability ahead of time.

FYI, another reason I just said that was because novin mentioned "im starting with HTML" – Vervious – 2010-08-15T17:44:13.203

So, are you using OS X or not? Notepad++ is a Windows app. – crazysim – 2010-08-16T01:42:09.600

I use both OSes... – Vervious – 2010-08-16T06:53:57.633
