    Can someone help me?

    I've been trying to configure php and Apache 1.3.27 on my Windows XP.
    I'm only using the server for myself to learn php. I tried to follow
    what it says in the install.txt file on php, so I already have the
    LoadModule, AddModule, and AddType directives typed into the
    httpb.conf file. I also changed the php.ini file like it said in
    install.txt.

    The server works, but every php file I try to test out makes a
    download prompt come up. (I type in http://localhost/hello.php and it
    tries to download the file instead of just opening it in IE.) It
    works for homemade html files though, so I think that php just isn't
    melding with apache, but I don't know why. Any help would be
    appreciated.

      did you remember to restart the apache server after changing the configuration? =)

              Actually, I found the problem, just a horrible mistype. It was
              because I had a # sign in front of the stuff I was supposed to add to
              the httpd.conf file. Thanks for your efforts anyways though.
