Well if you have uploaded your php files to the web server, then just type the address (example: www.yoursite.com/index.php ) into your browser and the script should run. If however it shows your source code and random html code then it means that your server doesn't have php installed in which case you would need to choose another service company.

if You don't Have any Web Host then You may RUN Your php file offline by Creating WAMP Server on Your PC:
Simply Download WAMP Server from Below URL and Install it.
Download Now

after Install open WAMP Folder from Your Installed Directory and Open WWW folder and create a folder with any name. remember this is Your Project Folder Name now Open it and Paste your File in it.

Now open Your Web Browser and type http://localhost/Your_Project_Name/File_Name.php

for example if Your Project Name is abc and your file name is abc.php then use:
http://localhost/abc/abc.php
