PHP file? What opens these?

A poster needs to know, he downloaded a driver, and its a PHP file. What opens these?, And what Is it anyway?


Thanks, Ive never come across this type file.

If i dont answer back, could someone goto vidio and sound and then to nvidia and answer for him? His thread is Recently installed a Ti4200 from a FX5200.............. Thanks in advance.

Im leaving town till sunday, and i dont want him sitting round not being able to use his card.

Any webbrowser will open it, when it is hosted on a server with PHP installed


www.php.net will install PHP server files on your system

BUT you would also need a webserver to view them Locally, SO... www.apache.org would be your next stop to install the HTTP server.


all that said, if you would just like to see the contents of a PHP file and read the code, open it in any text editor, I use EditPlus, but notepad will do

Cant you just point your browser to the php file?

Click to expand...

not if it is installed locally and you don't have php installed

If he downloaded a driver and it turned out ot be a PHP file he probably downloaded the page which the link to the driver is on rather than the driver itself. If he has a download acclorator or anything like that try turning it off and trying again.
