Hi I have a dedicated server however I am having some problems now when some software was reconfigured: When a user browses the site or opens certain links it only gives the user an option to save the file and a new window opens prompting the user to save the file ?,....this happens when a page is supposed to be displayed. Is there a reason that can cause this? any ideas?
Do you mean, when someone visit your site they surf on and got a "pop up" asking the save the File as.. instead of showing its content ?
Sounds like your file type associations are not properly set. For instance: AddType application/x-httpd-php .php or whichever file extension you're having a problem with.
Yes, html is configured as text/html, and webservers will assign that by default. Sounds like you need to compile a PHP module for Apache (if you use apache), and reconfigure apache to use it.
