Are you using a local apache server? Make sure that your local server is running locally. — Del, Mar 26 '18 at 23:47
@Rafsan, you can't just use file → open with PHP. You need a web server that runs the PHP code. — Chris, Mar 26 '18 at 23:51
@Del OP is not using the Apache server. See the address, its start `file://` — RiggsFolly, Mar 26 '18 at 23:56
To run a web page via Apache the url must not contain `file://` thats how you run a html file form disk without a real web server — RiggsFolly, Mar 26 '18 at 23:59
when try http://localhost/testphp.php then it's work but when try http://localhost/antor/index,php then it doesn't show anything. — Rafsan, Mar 27 '18 at 00:03
@RiggsFolly /home/rafsan/Desktop/php here i'm writting my code — Rafsan, Mar 27 '18 at 00:07

You must use a .php extension.

PHP files works only in .php files and in directory of the server.

Rename file to index.php and copy it to var/www/anything/

After that, go to http://localhost/anything/

EDIT: I was wrong. You can run php in html file, but you must have a file in a directory from a server. For example /www/... and go to http://localhost/...

*"You must use a .php extension"* - `.html` files can run as php. – Funk Forty Niner Mar 26 '18 at 23:52
Look at the URL.... It starts with `file://` – RiggsFolly Mar 26 '18 at 23:58
Funk Forty Niner: ok, my mistake. You right. – Ondra Štěpán Mar 27 '18 at 00:09
