    Hi, I have a website on which I have placed about 20 Photoparade files (.PhP) that I made over the years. I want people to be able to download the file to their computer to play them butinstead of downloading the .PhP file, it downloads an .HTM file which is a blank page. Photoparade support suggested renaming the files to .4PP but the "save target as" function can't run the download because "file can't be found", ( it's there), or some permission issue which I don't understand. the site is http:www/stevemaloy.com/trips.htm if you want to try.
    Thanks for your thoughts.

    I definatly would not use the extension php for anything but php on a webserver. 404 on http:www.stevemaloy.com/trips.htm remember that if your server is runing *nix/*bsd then it is case sensitive. 4pp is not the same as 4PP and sometimes cases get changed during uploading.

    Thanks. I didn't know about the case sensitivity but I have them on as .4PP anyway.
