Is PHP Dreamweaver friendly?

[larry45]

A web devolper made some php pages for me. Only thing, in DW don't see the main image at the top of the page, I only see text.  Also warning that on server.  I'm used to html for years. What is this?  Thanks

Talk to your developer. 

PHP is a server-side programming language.  For best results, you need a local testing server installed on your computer to parse scripts into something readable by browsers -- i.e. localhost/yoursite/index.php (your home page)

Common testing servers for Win/Mac: Wamp, Xampp or Mamp.

Once your testing server is up and running, switch to LIVE view in Dreamweaver CC.
