create a file phpinfo.php
and write following code.

PHP Code:


			
<?php



phpinfo();

?>

now save it in htdocs directory.

now go to 'localhost/phpinfo.php'

if you see information regarding php in tabular structure then your php is working fine. if not then php is not configured properly. I hope you are not opening php file from file menu of browser. usually if you try to open using file->open only then it start to download file as you mentioned.
