A PHP script always starts with <?php and ends with ?>.
A PHP script can be placed anywhere in the document.
On servers with shorthand-support, you can start a PHP script with <? and end with ?>.
For maximum compatibility, we recommend that you use the standard form (<?php) rather than the shorthand form.
A PHP file must have a .php extension.
A PHP file normally contains HTML tags, and some PHP scripting code.
Below, we have an example of a simple PHP script that sends the text "Hello World" back to the browser:
Each code line in PHP must end with a semicolon. The semicolon is a separator and
is used to
distinguish one set of instructions from another.
There are two basic statements to output text with PHP: echo and print.
In the example above we have used the echo statement to output the text "Hello World".

Comments in PHP
In PHP, we use // to make a one-line comment or /* and */ to make a comment block:
<html>
<body>
<?php
//This is a comment
/*
This is
a comment
block
*/
?>
</body>
</html>
<body>
<?php
//This is a comment
/*
This is
a comment
block
*/
?>
</body>
</html>
