how to display php code in the browser code example
Example: php showing code in browser
If your PHP code is being displayed in the browser, it means that your
server has not been setup to serve PHP scripts.
You can use something like XAMPP. If you do, activate 'Apache' and 'MySQL'
After you do that, go into the download directory and go into 'htdocs'
(default: 'C:\xampp\htdocs')
Make a folder with your PHP code in it.

this will only allow you to view it locally, nobody else will be able
to see the website.
