Before I start, I would like to say I'm newish to PHP so bear with me if my question sounds dumb.

Is it possible to get the contents of a PHP file hosted on a webserver without having any admin access to the server?
If you it is possible if you could explain what I'd need to look into/do/download that would be great Laughing

There are a few vulnerabilities which can help you retrieving the content of PHP scripts. E.g. include() bugs. So actually you need a vulnerability to do so.
Otherwise you won't be able to read the content of such scripts.
