WampServer

I have set up the wamp server and i can run phpBB3 but not any php files i create

the files are in the c:/wamp/www directory


They are either saved as php (if its only a php file)
or a .html file if they its html
By saving them with notepad++ as the files



I used the
<?php ?> tags in the files

I'm opening them in the browser and not just clicking the file


It's weird cause i can run the phpBB3 forum no problem and edit the code but if i try to create my own it doesn't work.

Also i created an alias to the directory because the directory is wamp/www/php_sandbox

Have you tried running your sandbox code like this

[localhost]

If that works get rid of the alias

Actually it is only the .html file that isn't parsing the code

I tried that the php file i just had a space between the <? and php i fixed it and it works

lol i just realized i have to save the files as only php for it to be read as php
