[RESOLVED] Trying to setup PHP server to run local website

[bmckphotos]

I have a simple PHP script in my webpage that just displays a message. Problem is...when I click the button to display the message, it displays the PHP code on the web page instead and I'm pretty sure that's because my PHP server is local. I don't think I have it configured properly to host locally. I downloaded XAMPP to handle this but I'm not sure what I need to do as far as configuring it. Ideas???

I have copied my project directory into C:\XAMPP\htdocs directory.

Thanks

After installing XAMPP you need to move your website to where the server's "listening" to. By default it will probably be in C:/xampp/htdocs. So if your website name is "MyWebsite" and you drag that directory to the htdocs directory, startup the XAMPP server, and navigate to localhost/MyWebsite/MyPage.html then click on the button, the actual PHP code should execute.

Yep, that worked! Thanks brother!
