Hi,
Im new to Wamp and im trying to prgram in PHP, mainly out of curiosity.
A friend suggested I use Wamp to run .php files.
I have DL Wamp Server (64 bits &php 5.3) E 2.2 and my OP sytetem is Windows 7 64 bit.
I have written a simple php website and placed it in the www folder but when i open it, php language does not show.
Can someone assist please?

Could you elaborate on what "... php language does not show" means? Ideally, you should never actually "see" PHP code on a website. Also, when you publish a web page that contains PHP, it should be published as <page_name>.php and not <page_name>.html.

How are you accessing the PHP file? Are you doing something like:
localhost:80/myfile.php
or
just double-clicking the PHP and opening directly into the browser?
You need to run the PHP file from the server, not locally in your files.
