I have setup PHP MyChat which has all its files with the PHP3 extension. My current web hoster allows PHP and it has worked in the past. Now, after installing MyChat, all PHP3 files get displayed in the browser as if they were TXT files. Renaming them to PHP helps and they display correctly. Obviously I am looking for a solution that removes the need to manually rename all files and embedded links from PHP3 to PHP - this is insane and could result in errors.
Problem is, I have no control over the server settings since its a free service provided by http://www.portland.co.uk
They provide space for PHP/HTML/CGI etc as well as a limited MySQL database.
I have no access to anything other than my own directories and database.
Here is more info which I hope might throw some light on the
settings....should I be contacting them or is there something that can
be done by me to "activate" PHP3 files?
Specs are as follows:-
IBM AIX and IBM RS/6000 web servers
Apache
PHP4
