Change HTML page with Java script to PHP page issues

Hi
My page is in HTML with java script called test.html.

When I open it in Dreamweaver and save it as a .php page and open the file in a web browser it just shows text the java doesn't work any more.

The reason I want the test.html changed to test.php is so I can add the PHP script from printphppage.php to the textarea of the test page. all my pages are attached below thanks for your help

You don't have to open and save - you can just rename

test.html => rename to test.php

If you have a PHP interpreter setup on your web server this should be enough to have it parse your file.

You can then add php code directly to this file.

If after a rename you are not getting expected results then as JEaston mentioned you probably don't have anything setup to interpret PHP

Hi I am running a local Webserver XAMPP.

My test.html page has 3 text boxes that use PrintLabelnew.js to enable printing on a DYMO printer.

JEaston I now get what you were saying sorry I didn't understand it earlier

Chris Stanyon you were correct as well
my script is working now when I renamed the test.html to test.php and actually placed it into my localhost directory it worked I should have know that sorry

There is one issue now in the text area my php script dose work as far as it prints the info from my data base but it also
prints the Table structure e.g at the <tr> <td> <tr> <td> on the label
