  • First Apache needs to be configured with php. Google for this. Second File extension needs to be php to be parsed by php before being issued to the browser. Then enable error reporting to see the issues in your php code. – Lelio Faieta Feb 05 '18 at 08:54

  • A page with php extension is an html page that is pre-parsed by php and served as html to the browser – Lelio Faieta Feb 05 '18 at 09:29

You should write code in php tag i.e. <?php ?>

<html>
<body>
  <?php  //php code here  ?>
</body>
</html>

You can follow the PHP Syntax
