localhost/aldo/index.php should suffice. 
If the page only shows the code that's because the PHP interpreter isn't running. Look at your httpd.conf (Apache configuration file) and look if the line that says 'LoadModule php5_module' isn't commented with # sign.
Also, look for 'Listen' should say 'Listen 80' so you can put simply http://localhost/ on the browser. If the server is running on another port instance e.g. the line shows 'Listen 8080', put on the browser http://localhost:8080/. This is a more uncommon issue.
If that doesn't make any change, maybe the PHP module isn't installed. I suggest to use a pre-configured package software with Apache/PHP/MySQL like xampp or mamp.
Make a new file on the root folder of your web server, 'test.php'. Add on the content:
Then on the browser access to http://localhost/test.php
It should display the PHP version and installed modules.
Well this is to manage sort of troubles with PHP, I haven't seen the previous page and the year

You can also use XAMPP or PHPEASY
Both are easy
In Xampp Save your pages to Htdocs
for example your page is my.php and save in htdocs
then you have to write in browser
http://localhost/my.php
great
Maark this thread as solved.

# -refa- Current doc root is on D: on win200pro 10/12/2006
DocumentRoot "d:/Apache/htdocs/refrost/www"
I create directories under this location, resulting in, say,
"d:/Apache/htdocs/refrost/www/webapp1"
"d:/Apache/htdocs/refrost/www/webapp2"
Then I put/create the index.php and other app files in the webapp1 or webapp2 directories and call them from the browser via:
http://127.0.0.1/webapp1/index.php
In your case, Leonardo, if you set your DocumentRoot to "D:/PHP/www" then you would call it via:
http://127.0.0.1/aldo/index.php
Clear as mud?
