Default Displaying PHP code

Hi,

Complete newbie here. Is there ANY way to interpret/display .php pages
on my system without having to install a complete server?

TIA

No, if you're going to server PHP web pages, you need a server to do it.
You can't just open the file with a browser.

Try WAMP - it's quick and easy to set up, and contains Apache, MySQL and
PHP.

You have two choices:

1) a web server with PHP install
2) an IDE that can do the debugging -- like Zend Studio.

The web server solution is much cheaper (free).

Sorry,

XAMPP should be your choice. You get it for WinX and Linux.
The simplest way to get you running. Get it here:
