note 18831 added to introduction

I installed both apache and php on my pc. It works fine as long as i call a .php script directly in the browser. However, when i embed php within html-script , nothing happens, the browser just skips the script. At the same time, things work allright when i do the same on a remote server. What could be wrong? -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/introduction.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+18831 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+18831 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+18831
