So i will be at say youtube, and Ill post a Text comment. I push post and my computer goes through a lapse, then lags for like 10 seconds, and then I query comes up asking if I want to download "Posting.php". I know you usually cannot see the PHP of websites, but this is not the only case. On myspace, Digg, and even this Forum, it will come up asking if I want to download "Posting.php" (if thats what its called in the site). Now luckly this only happens about 1/6 of the times I click the link, and not everylink, just ones doing those kind of actions. Its gotten quite annoying thought, I was wondering if anyone else had heard of this or is this normal?

 

 

 

 

 

O, and I have download the php, yeah its the real deal.

Are you sure you know the difference between PHP and HTML?

 

 

 

You'll be downloading the (probably) HTML output of the PHP script, not the PHP code itself, which is only passed to the browser if the webserver is setup incorrectly (or doesn't have PHP installed at all).

This has actually happened to me a couple times. All of which were fixed with a quick cache clearing and a bit of confusion. You do receive the actual php (at least in all of my cases), not just the html output.

 

 

 

I have no idea what causes it, or why, but it has happened to me on multiple versions of Apache and IIS (along side multiple sites), but all involved FireFox. :-k
