Are these .php files or .php3?
On my "testing" systems any .php3's cause problems because the default
/etc/mime.types file has;
application/x-httpd-php3 php3
With php4 installed, apache doesn't know how to handle these and falls
back to download. The fix is to edit /etc/mime.types and make the
following changes;
< application/x-httpd-php phtml pht php
> application/x-httpd-php phtml pht php php3
< application/x-httpd-php3 php3
> #application/x-httpd-php3 php3
Note you will need to restart apache for the changes to take affect.
