trq Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 You have somehow associated the .php extension with dreamweaver. Associate it with your broswer and the problem should go away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel0 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 If in Firefox try: Tools > Options > Content > File types > Manage There might be an association there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbullmarky Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 have you got your local version of PHP installed correctly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ober Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Umm... if it's allowing you to save php files from random servers on the web, you've got a goldmine in your pocket. I'll buy the PC for 10K right now. The more likely chance is that you're opening a local php file and you don't have a webserver + PHP installed to handle it.

448191 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 This shouldn't happen unless the server sends a "Content-Disposition: attachment" header. As Mark suggested, check your installation. Particularly httpd.conf (if on Apache of course). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomthehippie Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 im not following you! lol sorry. would u suggest i download a version of PHP and this might solve the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trq Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 If your not looking to develop PHP there is no need to have php installed on your system. The problem is a file association problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Is it all URLs ending with .php? Can you read this page?: http://www.phpfreaks.com/tutorials.php If your not looking to develop PHP there is no need to have php installed on your system. The problem is a file association problem. I doubt it is file association problem. I have .php files associated with my editor as well. No problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
