Hi everyone
This is my "hello.php" file:
Code:
 <?php 
 	$myConnection = NEW MYSQLI('localhost','root','a','b');
 	IF(!$myConnection)
 	DIE('ccc' .MYSQLI_CONNECT_ERROR());
 	echo 'Hello world';
 ?>
When I load it thorough my browser typing at the address bar:
I get an "Hello world" declaration on my display.
Then I create an hello.HTML file with the following code:
Code:
 <!DOCTYPE>
 <html>
 <head>	
 </head>
 <body>
 	<a href="hello.php">php</a>				
 </body>
 </html>
when I load "hello.html" and click "php" anchor, what I get at my display is the php file's source code.
I dont get the desired "Hello world".
Could anyone tell me why and what should I change to make the browser show "Hello" and not the source code?
Thanks
 
How are you loading the HTML page?

Are you loading it as " in a browser? Or are you just double clicking the html file in a folder?
