Hi, if you have some php files with a .php extension on them, how can you see them?
Do you need some sort of software??

Open them with notepad to read the content, including code. If you want to see the layout you probably need a program like Frontpage or Dreamweaver.

This file is a PHP page and PHP is a server side scripting language. It can be run only through a server like apache with PHP installed. You can execute this file if you got these softwares installed and configured. Installing apache and PHP on a computer is bit cumbersome. If you are really keen on viewing this page you may install XAMPP. A detailed description of using XAMPP is beyond the scope of this post. You can get more details at www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html.

PHP files CAN NOT be used as applications on you computer. PHP is a programming language made for web pages and servers.
