I've been looking for a good free host that supports PHP, and I've found one. But I need to know one thing: How do you make a .php file? I've tried to make one on Notepad, but it keeps getting saved as .php.txt

Mr./Ms Person,
To make a PHP file by hand you only need a text editor and save the file with a .PHP
extension. Notepad defaults to .rtf so save it with a file name of "test.php"
(with the quotes) and the file should be named correctly. (Make sure the file type
is TEXT)

Notepad is a horrible text editor so I suggest you look around for something
else. Try NoteTab from http://www.notetab.com/. They have a lite version that is
free. Their Pro version is only $20.

Of course CC will generate most (if not all) of the PHP files for your application.
If you want to learn more about writing PHP code then take a look at Larry Ullman's PHP
books. They're quite good for beginners.
