Or if you are talking about cpanel editor, then yes, save file, and view with browser

It is basically that both those above scripts need an interpretor. However you are able to find some of the results of the first script within a html editor because it has some html in it. However only the html part is being recognised. Anything placed between <? and ?> will not be executed unless and untill a server is installed with php.

This happens because php is a server side scripting language. The browsers that we use dont have the ability to process a php code. That is why always whenever you use a php file, you have an extention .php and not .htm or .html. All the files having the extension as .php first get processed by the php interpretor that can be installed only on a server and then finally the executed code is sent to the browser which recognises it in terms of html.
