[SOLVED] save .php file instead of execute

[janim]

hi guys

why i'm getting this error ??

  when i click the link in ie6  it's prompt me with save as this page not executing it

  but it works fine in firefox

  here how i generate the link :

  <a href="page.php?id=<?=$row[id]?>">Click here</a>

thanks

If you hover over the link, what does it say at the bottom.

[janim]

what is buttom ?

  do you mean info bar ?

  it type the link like it should be

[revraz]

You can try this

 

<a href="page.php?id=<?php echo $row[id]?>">Click here</a>

 

[janim]

You can try this

 

<a href="page.php?id=<?php echo $row[id]?>">Click here[/url]

it's the same    :'(

[revraz]

Something may be wrong in that page.

 

Does a simple page work?

 

<?php
echo "Hi";
?>

[janim]

everything works fine

it works ok in firefox and it was working good yesterday

but i don't know what's happend now

  why ie deal with like a file

i'm using ajax to generate these links

  is this the pb ?

It's likely because you have an editor associated with .php files and IE is trying to open or save them based on that.  Mine does it as well.  It can be quite annoying.

[revraz]

Interesting, my editor is associated with it and I haven't seen that issue.  Is your editor a plug in to IE?

[janim]

my editor is dreamweaver 8 !!

how can i know if is it plugs into IE ??

  i changed the (open with ) from folder options in win explorer

  i changed the php editor into notepad but i still have the same pb

have you tried defining the absolute url i.e http://www.example.com/

[janim]

i'm doing this in localhost and i tried this :

<a href=" http://localhost/website1/page.php?id=<?=$row[id]?>">ddddd</a>

    but nothing this IE gonna kill me, i hate this shit

[adam291086]

Not sure then, have you tried manually adding in the Id number. Then see what happens

[janim]

i did that

i changed the page name too

  but nothing

  i tried to send header('content-Type : text/html ')

  but nothing too

  how can i tell this fu*** browser that it's just page

 

  thanks all for helping

check the file you are trying to run is named correctly. i.e there is no space between name and the .php. Not sure but its worth a shot.

Rather than trying to change the file association - how about deleting it? It's not a long term solution, but it'd at least show us what the issue is.

 

If you're using XP, go to control panel > folder options > file types. Wait for the field to populate. If you type php, it'll find the relevant one. And then hit delete.

I can't remember what the problem was, but I do remember that it was due to the localhost factor..

 

if your doing this all on a local machine.. try changing your dns/proxy settings in IE to IP: 127.0.0.0 Port:80 or 8080 pending on your server settings..

 

Although If I remeber right it was cause of a conflict between my server and my OS.. the OS wanted to run the file but since it was being ran through IE, IE would tempt to  download it or make it seem like it was, cause it was a local file.. but when I made changed my settings above to match the local host and try to resolve through the host first it worked fine..

 

Warning note: Programs like AIM, MSN, and so on may go offline as they use the same settings.. just remember to switch everything back to the way it was after your done testing.. hopefully this helps.. it worked for me.. sorry I can't remember the exact problem that was causing it though.

Is this a problem with all pages or that particular page?

[roshanbh]

you can also try clearing all the cache and restart your server. It may help you.

He stated that a simple echo "Hi" php file worked.

 

Something to do with his url after the ?

What happens when you click on this link

 

http://www.blahblahblah.com/page.php?id=1

 

If it gives a page not found, it's your code.  If it tries to download, its your browser.

i did that everything is ok it opens in firefox fine
