    accessed it displays itself as text and does nothing that its supposed
    to...Any ideas why?

      Where to begin? I'll go first.

      Does your file have the right extension for the server to treat as PHP?

          Does your web host support PHP scripts?

          Some web hosts dont have PHP installed on them, meaning that the PHP
          script will just be returned as text.

                  as Garp said, maybe you dont have the right extension.

                      Post the file. Or try this in a file called test.php:

                      <?php phpinfo(); ?>

                      If it just displays it, your server isn't configured to use mod_php and
                      you'll have to run everything as a CGI script. Might as well use perl
                      in that case.

                          The file was perhaps saved as Unicode?
