<html>
<head>
<title>
Php Example
</title>
<body>
<?php
echo("woww !! this php example works !!!");
?>
</body>
</html>

simple

you can put php anywhr on your page...but it shud be enclosed in <?php
and ?> tags.

you can even say something like this....
<a href="<?php echo("link.php") ?>" target="_blank">try this link </a> :D

Don't forget, the pages you have PHP code in must have the suffix .php

Not necessarily.
That depends on the actual server configuration, you can configure the server in a way that he also puts .html, .htm, .whatever files through the PHP engine. But in most situations, the server is set up to accept at least .php files.

actually any file can be included in your php page....and of you want it to contain php code....then it has to be in the normal php form...enclosed within those <?php ?> tags...I can well name it as news.inc, news.cq, or news.anything....it will work just the same :D

Mordred, how do you configure the server to put all pages through the php engine?

That is true, the include() can add any type of file to your php document. But any file containing php code must have a .php suffix unless, as Mordred has pointed out, the server is configured to put files with other suffixes through the php engine.

If you're running your site on Apache and your host permits it, you can have a .htaccess file in your document root with this setting:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .bar .foo .133t .guessWhat

And all files that have the extension .bar etc. get parsed by the PHP engine. Frankly, that's all I know about this issue, I'm not that good on tuning servers, so I can't provide you with any more details, but google should give you references to plenty of information.

;) You are again slightly wrong; what you said is only true if you include() the file through HTTP. If you include it from your local filesystem, like include('test.inc"), all code within the <?php tags is evaluated, regardless of the file's extension.
