You can use php as a normal scripting language, you will need to make
exceptions for html specific things, like header() won't work.

php yourscript.php

or if you want to make it to work like it would be a binary

add the following line as the first line (you need to give a path that right
for your system):
#!/usr/bin/php

and then:
chmod 755 yourscript.php

and now you can do:
../yourscript.php
