the easiest way is to save all your files with extension .php
code not surrounded by <?php ?> will not be parsed by the php engine.
so for your example
<html>
<head>
<title>title text</title>
</head>
<body>
Your name is <?php print $name; ?>
You firstname is <?php print $firstname; ?>
</body>
</html>
save as php
you could also save as .html (not recomended), but in that case you
have to change your apache webser to handle the .html file as php
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
