Search for and follow the steps to how to unhide the known extensions related to your operating system

Then remove the unwanted file extention by renaming the file.

Last step use a better editor to create and edit your php files.

What is the output of your browsers source code view at the moment you get a blank screen?

You probably are still using wrong file extension.

How do you enter the file name into your browser? Something is wrong with your description, you said you entered test.php into your browser, while the file name was test.php.txt, that would lead to error 404 or 403 not found.

We cannot help you if dont tell how you are executing test.php. I assume that you simply double click in explorer on the file test.php, but you do not tell us so.

Let me explain the whole scenario from beginning.....at first i create a php file (test.php) but it was saved as test.php.txt and when i tried to execute it ,it shows me the php code in browser but now i changed the file type of same file & now its showing me as php file.Now at this time when i tried to open the same file (saved as test.php in htdocs) as-localhost/test.php it shows me the blank browser page.

can you send us the php file?

There must be something wrong with it or it's code or the way how you access it.
And with the information you provided us it is not possible to identify this issue.

This is still a bad description. Do not use "try to execute", i have no idea what you mean by that. Please explain fully and precisely, what you are doing. Each mouseclick, every keystroke!

In my test environment it is working as expected. My test.php file echoes the word hello instead of a full white page.
My source code view contains only the word hello, no php code.

I'm out. I cannot help you. I don't know your XAMPP configuration, i don't know your php file and i have no possibilities to analyse and test it myself.
