Answer 1

Follow this: http://www.tutorialspoint.com/articles/run-a-php-program-in-xampp-server
or, you also can use PHP's built in development server. Ref: http://php.net/manual/en/features.commandline.webserver.php

My suggestion is to use Sublime Text instead of note++. Download link: https://www.sublimetext.com/3

Answer 2

You want to connect database or what ?
