PHP programming help using forms?

When I run this on my browser I find out that after clicking submit the code I wrote would show up. Here's the program I wrote

At welcome.html:
<html>
<body>
<form action="welcome.php" method="get">
Name: <input type="text" name="name" />
Age: <input type="text" name="age" />
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>

At welcome.php:
<html>
<body>
Welcome <?php echo $_GET["name"]; ?>.

You are <?php echo $_GET["age"]; ?> years old!
</body>
</html>

so when I run this, welcome.html works right but after pressing submit, rather than a response the welcome.php code is returned
What is wrong with this program?

I have installed all the necessary software for php and have built and run previous php programs sucessfully.

that should work, if you are getting back the php then php is not configured properly, at least not where that file is located.

But here is a very simple test, save this in the same place as a .php file, see what it gives back. If it doesn't give you info on your php installation, it's not working.

<?php
phpinfo();
?>
