how to run a php file for form validation??

I am a very basic php coder.
when i tried to send a form data to a php file,it happens that that php filee gets downloaded everytime, instead of giving me the proper output.how do i correct it?

the form looks like this:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. <html> <body> <form action="http://bytes.com/welcome.php" method="post">
  2. Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
  3. E-mail: <input type="text" name="email"><br> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> 
  4.  
  5.  
  6. and the php file like this:
  7.  
  8. <html> <body>
  9.  
  10. Welcome <?php echo $_POST["name"]; ?><br>
  11. Your email address is: <?php echo $_POST["email"]; ?> </body> </html>
