title: Chrome Downloads My PHP Files
body: <p>This is my first time using stackoverflow so I'll try to not make a fool of myself right away haha. I just decided to pick up PHP because I'm getting tired of C++ and Java, plus I just installed Linux Mint 14 and decided I should pick up a new language with my new operating system (Aside from using Ubuntu every now and then I have almost exclusively used Windows up to this point).</p>
  
  <p>So I set up my environment fine, and I can run all my PHP scripts via Terminal alright, but when I try to run the script in Chrome (I.E. file:///home/stitches/Programming/PHP/HelloWorld/hw.php) it downloads the PHP file instead of displaying it. I am pretty sure it's not any of my installations, because I use the file:/// method in Chrome to bypass the blocked C drive on my school's computers very frequently and whenever I click something in Chrome's directory browser-ish thing it downloads it (Except for certain file types). That being said, I don't have much Linux or PHP experience at all and it really could be anything. Also, when I run the test script (localhost/testphp.php) it runs fine and does not download. </p>
  
  <p>Can anyone help me out? I would prefer to be able to test my scripts in my browser because that way I can test it out in the browser as well. I'm guessing I could just put all of my files in the same directory as testphp.php (Wherever that is. I'm not sure, but I'm sure I can find it) so I can access it via localhost, but I'd prefer to be able to organize my scripts in the directory they are currently in.</p>
  
  <p>I do want to mention that I did run searches, and the few people that had similar issues to me ended up having different issues or the same issue caused by something else. Unless I'm searching with the wrong terms I can't find anything on this.</p>
