Hi guys,

Here's a strange problem... used to be that Internet Explorer would open PHP files that I had stored on my local machine (which is not a server). I would usually get some kind of "pop-up" warning asking me if I wanted to view the file but then after that I could view the file just fine (minus the scripting stuff of course).

Now, whenever I try to open one of these PHP files with IE, I get the hourglass for 2 seconds and then nothing. No IE window, no error. Nothing.

IE will open up on its own and I can browse PHP files on the Internet all day long with no problems. But the ones on my local machine no longer open, where before they would even though I am not running any kind of server technology.

Any idea of the cause?

Thanks for the help.
