Hello Bode,
You obviously purposefully asked your browser not to parse you php code. You are linking to a javascript instead of a php file. It's this simple; if you are create a .php file and u wish to incorporate it in your html code, you should use a function called include();. Simply try something like:
<body>
<?php include(pp.php); ?>
</body>
Let me know what u get from that.
