hi
when i am running my php file in xampp it gives object not found.
i have put my file in xampp/htdocs folder and running it as http://localhost/hello.php

not enough information.
Is it a HTTP 404 error? or a php error?

I just can guess: Your file isn't named hello.php, but error.php.txt or something else.

Your Apache error log can give some more information for your error to us too.

the error is as-
object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

Read the \xampp\apache\logs\error.log file which will give a more accurate reason for your 404 file not found error message.

How can we tell you the reason for your problem as you have not told us anything that could help us help you - what did the error.log file have to say about your 404 error?
Or don't you know how to read the error.log file either?

just a guess:
before you have used Windows Notepad to create the file.

Windows notepad extend the filename with a .txt extension if you don't change the file type in the save dialog.
