    I have some code that I would like to put on my website (to verify email addresses) and I'm not sure how to do it.

    If I simply paste the code into my website the code just appears on the page as text.

    How do I make the code "active"?

    What kind of code? PHP? If so, it has to be placed in a file with a .PHP extension, with PHP brackets <?php ... ?> around it.

    yes it is php code I was wondering about. If I place the php code in a file, how do I call upon the php code to be active in the website? Is there some kind of tag I have to include in the html code?

    Is java script used the same way?

    You have to save the file as .php and you have to put the PHP code inside <?php and ?> tags.
