Hi,
I have setup a local testing server using PHP/MYSQL on my windows computer. It seems all tests well when I test with Firefox the page displays properly, but when I try to test with IE I keep getting a box to ask me to save file and I do but IE still does not work? I have files saved in www folder. Any Ideas?

Thanks for you help.
Dennis

If you are prompted to save the file, that means that you are not properly
serving it from Apache.

What do you see when you browse to http://localhost? What is the file's
name? What is the markup in that file? What is the path to that file's
location?

I don't see the file there. Should I have saved the files to htdocs or www?
