Hi noob here, I have used php in the past and it worked fine. Now when i try to use php absolutely nothing shows in the browser with a simple echo.
Ex:
<?php
echo "what the heck";
?>
In browser: I get a blank white page.
With more extensive code I get output in the browser but its all wrong
Ex:
<?php
// OK because we escaped the quotes!
echo "<h5 class=\"specialH5\">I love using PHP!</h5>";
// OK because we used an apostrophe '
echo "<h5 class='specialH5'>I love using PHP!</h5>";
?>
In browser: this is what is seen.
I love using PHP!"; // OK because we used an apostrophe ' echo "
I love using PHP!
"; ?>
* I am viewing through localhost and have tried from 127.0.0.1
*I have tried in explorer, chrome , ff, and opera with same results
*I have uninstalled and installed xampp several times successfully,
the only problem i do get from xampp is from the control panel saying i need to start xampp from root directory but. i received that same notice in the past and it worked fine.
Anyone else have this problem or know how to solve this? Any comments is greatly appreciated.
