php problems

[dlbottla]

for some reason, all of a sudden, IE or firefox wont load a website page with a .php extension. It just pops open a download window.

I don't know how i did this. must have installed something or changed a setting or something.

Please, any help fixing this problem will be greatly appreciated.

There is a website I really need to open but it uses index.php and I can't open it.

thanks,

you can email me the answer to dlbott@hotmail.com or message me

thanks

Does this happen on different servers?

Check to make sure that the PHP MIME type is setup on the server. If it worked before someone may have accidently removed it.

Put this into a .htaccess file, and if it fixes it, that's your problem.

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Ok, what I am confused about is that it is in both firefox and IE explorer and is on two different computers. It is on another forum site I go to, or I would post it. Maybe someone can pm me and i ll send u the link and u can see if it happens for u. maybe it is their server. I am hoping that it is something easy or not on my end.

any help appreciated and thanks for responses

switch hosts.

It's on your host's/server's side. I can fix it for a fee if you have root access.

Yup, thats problem. Your http server doesn't know to parse .php with php.exe

It doesn't sound like the OP owns the site in question. He's asking about a third party site having this problem.

Answer: Nothing to do with your browser. The site's server is not configured properly.
