How can I make <?php echo '<p>Hello World</p>'; ?> appear as text in a document? I tried using <code> </code> tags, but I still got that funny little PHP symbol.

Do you want it to be visible in the final web page, not parsed and executed
by the server?

Then paste it or type it in Design view.
That will convert the < and > to html entity characters &lt; and &gt; which
will display that line as text, instead of html and PHP tags.

&lt;?php echo '&lt;p&gt;Hello World&lt;/p&gt;'; ?&gt;

----------
To make visible the code ( as text ), of one complete file:

1 )Upload the file, "exampl.php" to the server.
2 )Create one page ( "page.php" ), where "exampl.php" will be shown as a
text, and write this code:

<?php highlight_file( "pathto/exampl.php", TRUE ); ?>

- Call with the browser: page.php
- Te code of exampl.php will appear as text at the proper location.

3)Another way is, to upload the file "exampl.php" renamed to exampl.phps".

- Call with the browser: exampl.php
