The bad news is that you’re still going to need to install PHP and MySQL yourself.
What can PHP do for your web server?
With PHP installed, your web server will be able to run little programs (called PHP scripts) that can do tasks like retrieve up-to-the-minute information from a database and use it to generate a web page on the fly before sending it to the browser that requested it. Much of this book will focus on writing PHP scripts to do exactly that.
Why is PHP code being executed on my website?
If on loading the page you see raw PHP code that is being executed it probably means that either PHP is not active on the web server, or that you did not grant the proper.php extension to your file (s). In general, unless the web server has a specific configuration, PHP code is only executed in pages with a “.php” extension.
