I have installed Xampp version 1.7.7 for windows and i want to start learning php. The problem here is I can ‘t run php code.

I tried this very simple example

<html>
<head>
<title>Hello world!</title>
</head>
<body>
    <?php echo "Hello world!"; ?>
</body>
</html>

Ofcorse I don t double click the php file and I don t just execute it in Firefox.
I go to 

 http://localhost/xampp/htdocs/helloworld.php

which is the correst direction, I have checked it several times.
I tried for index.php too but it doesn ‘t work too. I get this error.

Object not found!

Error 404

localhost

Apache/2.2.21 (Win32) mod_ssl/2.2.21 OpenSSL/1.0.0e PHP/5.3.8 mod_perl/2.0.4   
Perl/v5.10.1

I have installed Xampp with default options and when i click on admin (xampp xontrol panel) I get the classic orange page. When I go on status menu it shows that everything is activated except SMTP service and Tomcat service. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall xampp and nothing changed.

I have also searched on the web but nothing seems to help.
Thank you
