You'll need to post some code relating to your problem.

Make sure you're not using short tags (<? ?> or <?= ?>) when scripting. Short tags is not enabled by default, Ideally you should always code with full php tags (<?php ?> or <?php echo ?>). Also make sure you code all your PHP related content in .php files and not .html files.

You should also be running your code from http://localhost.

yes  i used full php code and also saved it as a php file and run using DevPhp IDE and also tried in external browser (Firefox) the result is same...

and i the last one makes me think i really forget how to make the program execute from local host???

i saved the php file in htdocs in the apache folder and i type localhost/register.php but it shows "Not Found" error what shall i have to do to 

What happens if you go to just http://localhost

Yes i attached the screen shot of the browser content when i entered http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1

i think that the html code is executed and the php fails to compile please help me what to do to accept the entered value and make the php coding to work.

well this is the source code i compiled and saved as .php file

<?php
$c=mysql_connect("localhost","prakash","thrisha!") or die(mysql_error());
$d=mysql_select_db("users") or die(mysql_error());

Hold on you say you have WAMP installed, if that's the case your files should be saved in C:\wamp\www not C:\wamp\Apache\htdocs (or wherever you're saving the files to).

AFAIK PHP scripts cannot produce a page cannot be found error, if there are syntax errors.

The above picture is shown when i typed http://localhost in my firefox browser and the above code is my registration project coding ..

i saved it with .php extension as i said already

did i need to put the .html and .php in a seperate file and want to run the html file??

or else what else can i do to get out of this problem and see my project running??

please help me friends ..

am dying over here

Re-read read my post, I am asking WHERE you are saving the file.

woooooooooooowwwwwww

wildteen u rocksss

ur single line makes me out of this problem 

now i replaced my register.php to the directory you said that is c:\wamp\www\register.php and execute as http://localhost/register.php now it sends me echo message which i used to check if the birhtdate is correct or not and i found the message

in short the php coding starts working

and

one more trap i actually designed the page with three drop down list one for day(1-30) another for month (1-12) and the last one for year(1901 to 1994)

now the problem is there is an extra two drop down boxes appearing besides day and month list and the year DDbox is just fine

whats the actual problem????

wildteen can i know your yahoo id can we please chat on some day??
