You can write the code where you want. I prefer a subdir in the apache dir.
You must config in the httpd.conf file where your code is.

Sumit,
yes, your are right. You can use notepad or any other plain text editor.

Start your code with

<?php
.
your code
.
?>

Then save it as yourfile.php.
next you start your browser and load localhost/yourfile.php
if you did the installtions correct, you will see your result.

There is a very good tutorial at www.thickbook.com, that helped me for my first
steps in php some weeks ago.
