[FIXED] PHP not working on MAMP?

Issue

I'm new to this so please forgive me.

I have set up MAMP and am trying to run a PHP file (index.php). I have the green lights and have my index.php file inside the htdocs folder.

But nothing seems to show up in the browser.

Here is my setup

I have done as told in the answers in this question running php on mamp

which includes:

http://localhost/index.php
http://localhost:8888/index.php

both give me a bank page.

I tried /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/index.php and it give me this.

Solution

Change this:

<php? echo"hello"; ?>

to:

<?php echo "hello"; ?>

---

The php's tags are:

<?php for opening and ?> for closing
