Installing PHP

I believe I have an installation problem on my WinXP machine. I have some .htm files with PHP within in my localhost [wwwroot] directory. When I open the major one [I wrote but I think it's mostly correct] in IE6, I get an error on line 69 [which is the end of my PHP.] When I open in IE6 a test file: ********************************** <!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Untitled web-page</title> </head> <body> <?php echo ("My name is Judy."); ?> </body> </html> ****************************************** I get a blank page. When I view its source still within IE6, I can see all of the above including the PHP coding which is why I surmise that PHP isn't installed correctly. Developing the site online isn't practical. I need to make it work locally before uploading. Help! thanks, judy __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
