Parse error

Anon

I am new the PHP universe. I set up PHP 4.0.6 on Apache 1.3 on Win2k. I am getting errors when I try to run simple sample files. For example, I get the the following error,

Parse error: parse error in c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\test3.php on line 9

when I have a PHP file with the following code in it:

<head>
<title>Hello World</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
/ This is a comment - it will be ignored by PHP and will not show up
in the final output. /
echo "Hello World";
?>
</body>

but it works fine when I run a PHP file with the following code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Can anyone help me please?
thanks,

Make it :

<?php

echo ("<p>Hello World</p>");
?>

or u can make it as variable:

<?php
$name="Hello World";
echo($name);
?>

try it ..

That code you posted works fine for me, are you sure your PHP is set up correctly?
