Run a local webserver (like Apache), and open the pages in your browser. It
isn;t actually the browser that's running them, but the webserver offcourse.
To my knowledge browsers cannot run PHP.
XAMP is a nice package that will install Apache, PHP & MySQL in one go
without much hassle for testing at home.
