send data to php and receive response

i want to send data from a jquery script file to a php script file process it and receive a response, however, the response comes as the content of the php file

what to do ?

this is my jquery script:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head>
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <title>test</title>
    <script type="text/javascript" src= "jquery.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function Client(name,lastName){
            this.name = name;
            this.lastName = lastName;
        }
        $(function(){
            var submit = $("#submit");
            var clientName = $("#clientName");
            var clientLastName = $("#clientLastName");
            submit.click(function(){
                var client = new Client(clientName.val(),clientLastName.val());
                alert(JSON.stringify(client));

                $.ajax({
                    type :'GET',
                    url:'save.php',
                    data: {json:JSON.stringify(client)},
                    success:function(data){
                    alert(data);
                        }
                    });
            });


        });

    </script>
</head>
<body >
    <div>
        <label for="clientName" >clientName</label>
        <input id="clientName" type="text"/>
        <label for="clientLastName" >clientLastName</label>
        <input id="clientLastName" type="text"/>
        <input type="submit" id="submit" value="submit"/>
    </div>
</body>

this is my php script:

<?php
 $value = json_decode($_GET['json']);
 echo $value['clientName'];
?>

this is what i get in return :

enter image description here

what do i need to do to get only the echoed variable rather than the contents of the php file?

Check if php is installed on your computer or else install wamp server and then run your code.

Check whether php can be compiled in your localhost as suggested by Nirazul.
To access json values in php make use of ->. Modified script is below

<?php
 $value = json_decode($_GET['json']);
 echo $value->name; // or $value->lastName
?>
