I've been trying to write a quick php script. It's just to see if something works, so the code won't quite make sense, and is probably wrong.
Code: <?php
echo 'Welcome <?php echo $_POST["fname"]; ?>!<br />'
echo 'You are <?php echo $_POST["age"]; ?> years old.'
?>
But a large problem I am running into is this: When I try to upload the file (titled "welcome.php") and then reference it later (www.website.com/welcome.php) it returns a 404. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Code: Status: File transfer successful, transferred 118 bytes in 1 second
I want to assume that this means that. Unless I have my assumptions incorrect

I want to assume that this means that. Unless I have my assumptions incorrect Your assumptions are incorrect. It's possible you don't have proper permissions on the file, on the folder, or even that you're uploading to the wrong folder. If you try to upload the same file twice in a row, are you prompted about overwriting the file?
Yes I am prompted about overwriting. I'll upload a couple screenshots when I get home if it helps.

Then that narrows it down to permissions or the wrong folder, in my opinion.
Are you uploading it to a folder named
httpdocs,
public_html or something similar?
I'd also change the code to
Code: <?php phpinfo(); ?>
as a test.

Ok... turns out, I wasn't even logged in (or connected?) as the right username >.> Don't worry, all fixed now
I just need to write some functional php code now

You should tell (Swivel?) to disable the anonymous FTP account or set its quota to zero, then! 
Great to hear that everything is all figured out.
