You need to start up an Apache server for them to parse. As far as I know, Mac takes care of installing it for you, it's all just a matter of finding it.
I, however, run Linux so no clue on that.  You could also just upload the files to your host's server and test that way. |

You should be able to open and edit PHP files with TextEdit - which is a default Mac program.

Oh, do you mean you're trying to view them, or are trying to edit the code? 'Cause as far as I know only Notepad (on Windoze) can't read them properly.

I would suggest viewing all code files using Text wrangler. it is free and much better then text edit. it hasnt been decided wether it is a simple text editor or a word processor. it changes stuff to files behind the scene, so i would avoid it.
