A Question about PHP

I created a test.php file in my inetpub folder and wrote the following script in that file, but when I access that page by url "http://localhost/test.php" it prompts me the error "The page cannot be found ", can anyone please guide what am I doing wrong.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>My First PHP Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>My First PHP Page</h1>
<?php

echo '<p>This is my first PHP script.</p>';

?>
</body>
</html>

Thanks and Best Regards,
Mushq

Simple answer is that you have something configured wrong. I am assuming you are using IIS since you mentioned the inetpub folder. Another assumption would be that no HTML or PHP file can be found in your localhost. Am I correct?

Re: A Question about PHP

As PeejAvery already mentioned it looks like a configuration problem.
Give us some more information about your installation (iis version, php version aso.) and configuration.

make sure your page is in "\Inetpub\wwwroot" folder and not in "Inetpub" folder
