Issue running scripts in browser

Post by andrew40 »

Just a quick question as it is bugging me today.

Since doing a clean up on my mac, running web pages through FF / IE and Safari has beome a pain. Everytime I access one of my Joomla sites that runs a php script execution or any other site for that matter, I get a pop up save as dialog asking me to save the index.php file.

Any ideas why this is happening??

Provided the proper content type is being sent, Safari should care what the file is called. This sounds odd to me.

Is this a local server or a hosted server? This happens sometimes when the file is not parsed properly but it is handled without errors. Sometime too, if the script exceeds execution time it might do that, or if the returned data is too big if might do that. There are several things that could be causing it, but to get deeper into it, we need to know if it is a hosted or local server.
