Hi there, I too fine this book to be totally awesome. I am completely
new to php and the approach you took in writing this book demystify this
scripting language. I am stuck on chapter 8 with the topic "USING EXTERNAL
FILES". I followed everything that was suggested in creating the template however when I run
index.php all I see is the php script in the browser. I am local host server.  Can you please advise
how to resolve this issue cause it is quite daunting. Thanks cheers.

When you say that all you see is the PHP script, do you mean that all you see is your code?

If that's the case, then you're not running it through a server.

Make sure you use a server package like XAMPP, make sure the (virtual) server is actually running, and then navigate to the correct localhost URL, and it should work fine.
