and Apache using links given in
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html#641

but when I am trying a simple code in text file as saving as ".php", its icon changes to php type but when i try to open it, it doesnt display any window

Can anybody help.

I am very new to php and have no clue regarding installation except the information i got through different php related websites.

Pls help

Open it how? You have to process php pages via your php-enabled web server, unless you're trying to use the php cli from a command prompt. As an example, you'd open a web browser to http://localhost/myphppage.php to "run" the php page myphppage.php.
