The PHP script will be executed in Web server when the user requests the page.
IMPORTANT: Nothing will happen if you view the page directly on local machine (by clicking with mouse)!

The PHP script will be executed sequentially from the top to the bottom.

Difference between JavaScript and PHP


JavaScript Category Where it is executed When it is executed Execution order Client-side scripting language Web browser When an event occurs (Eventdriven) Non-sequential (Event driven) Nothing happens if no events .html PHP Server-side scripting language Web server When user request the page from Web server Sequential (Top to bottom) Always executed .php

File extension If you open the page locally, (by mouse click) what will happen

Always executed just like the Nothing happens page from the Web (because (because Web browser it is client-side) cannot execute the script) You must upload to a PHP-enabled Web server in order to see the result 5
