Jump to PostWorks fine on my system: Fedora 15, Firefox 9, Apache 2.x on localhost. I think it should run on other systems too. What error do you get?. If you look at the page source in the browser is there anything displayed? What do you get if you add some text …
Jump to PostDid you use PHP short tags (as it is displayed in your last post)? Maybe your web server is not configured for short tags. Also it might be a good idea to put a whitespace between the tags and PHP code.

<?php
phpinfo();
?>What does it return ? Also, don't put the bracket with echo statement.
<?php
echo "Hello";
?>It should be.
