536552	2007-03-28 21:59:00	Lately I have been getting a firefox popup for index.php script. Screenshot: www.imagef1.net.nz not sure why this has started, maybe something to do with the firefox update. Anyway, what is it and how to stop it coming up? Any ideas appreciated. Thanks.	Nyuuji (5460)

This causes the script itself to be downloaded to your computer rather than the web page you expected. 2) The PHP script outputs excessive amounts of data, but does not send a header describing the content-type. In this case, the browser will display the download box, the logic being "This file is huge. The code to describe a web page is never this huge. Clearly, I'm not supposed to display it. Where do you want it saved to?" Both of these issues are the fault of the webhost, or the maintainer of the PHP script in question - it's not you at fault.	Erayd (23)

The browser receives a nearly blank response. The browser will not be able to determine the type of response (e.g. text/html, image/png, application/octet-stream) as a result and will assume it is to be saved to a file. You should tell whoever is providing this site to get a better web host.	TGoddard (7263)
