php file cannot be fetched while running html file
Question by user1487874
I’ve a pre defined php file that has to be run when I run my HTML file on browser. It’s a part of learning AJAX from the book “Head Rush Ajax” and I downloaded those files from their website. But that PHP file’s not running and I can’t update my page. Please let me know if I’ve to install any other php related software to run the HTML file perfectly using PHP file.

PHP is a server side programming/scripting languages. Its needs a server capable of running PHP files. These servers include, Apacher web server, IIS and others too.
To test your application on your system during development, you can use many suites, like WAMPsever, LAMP Stack, XAMPP server, MAMP (Mac) and Local IIS too.
