PHP is not executed and source visible

Tagged with: PHP

My PHP code is not executed and its source code is visible in the browser instead, what will be the reason,

This is just because , you need to open your PHP code blocks with <?php and not just <?.If you use the short form, you should go through all your PHP files and change it.

OR if you want to write php with code block <? then edit your
php.ini file

; Allow the <? tag. Otherwise, only <?php and <script> tags are recognized.
; NOTE: Using short tags should be avoided when developing applications or
; libraries that are meant for redistribution, or deployment on PHP
; servers which are not under your control, because short tags may not
; be supported on the target server. For portable, redistributable code,
; be sure not to use short tags.
