I have several websites and I have on my computer many files that have .php
extensions.
When I look at them offline - before they are put on the web - I have
problems getting to see them. Security questions my every move.
They're OK when their uploaded to the web, why is it more of a problem when
they are on my PC, and, more to the point, how do I get to look at them
without getting any security messages?
 
I would suggest installing Firefox and associating the .php extension with
it. This will allow you to view the pages by double-clicking, but not of
course to execute any php code therein.

To execute the code, and see the page as it's meant to look, you need a
local webserver, and the php preprocessor. For this I would suggest Xitami,
it's much easier than the linux-standard Apache to get working on Windows.
The Xitami site has good info on how to set it up with the php preprocessor,
which you also need to download.
