mac_gyver Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 a) what URL are you using in your browser's address bar to request the main page? it should be http://localhost/your_main_file_name.php b) partly related to the above, what extension does your file have, this must be .php c) what opening php tags are you using? using full <?php tags will always work, short ones <? not so much. d) partly related to the above, what does the 'view source' in your browser of your page containing php code look like?

martov Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Probably the problem is in the short tags if it is not are you sure you can access with the http://localhost/thesite or you just open the hmlt files?
