problem with installation

problem with installation
<html><div style='background-color:'><P>Hello,</P>
<P>I have just installed php4 following the instructions on <A href="http://webmonkey.w
ired.com/webmonkey/00/44/index4a_page10.html?tw=programming">http://webmonkey.wire
d.com/...?tw=programming</A> , however 
after the
installation i tested it as recommended and what came on the screen was as f
ollows:</P>
<P>1)I typed the code &lt;? php echo "Hello World"; ?&gt; in a text document
</P>
<P>2)But what appeared was &lt;? php echo "Hello World"; ?&gt; and not what 
i expected as in "hello world" alone.</P>
<P>It seems to me as it hasnt worked as if i type anything in a text do
cument it appears as what you type.</P>
<P>There were some other guidlines, if the installation did not work, but i 
checked them throughly and the same thing appears.</P>
<P>If someone could help me, i would very much appreciate that. i have only 
recently started to learn about php so my knowledge is limited however i did
 follow the instructions step by step.</P>
<P>Thank you <BR><BR>Tanvir Mohammed, Kingston University</P></div><br clear
