   When visiting my blog (http://strikdiploma.nl), IE tries to save the pages instead of opening them.

   Anybody any idea why this is?

   http://strikdiploma.nl/info.php does work.

   My blog is on Strayhorn, by the way. :-)

   Try running wp-admin/upgrade.php on your site.

   I know, but go ahead.

   It is a fresh install, not an upgrade......

   Bug in the install.

   It's missing a setting in the options table (a record called html_type) which is keeping WordPress from passing the content-type. The devs may have fixed this in the most recent download, but don't quote me.

   Problem: Wordpress 1.5dev is causing later versions of IE to issue a download link

   Solution: add "html_type" as "text/html" to your "wp_options" table or run upgrade.php if you have the latest upgrade-schema.php (revision: 1.27).

   Reason:
   WordPress 1.5 now has a configurable Content-Type: default (I guess it's for those doing XHTML strict which is supposed to be "application/xml" or something), but the install process doesn't have the "html_type" setting that it is looking for. Running upgrade.php will access upgrade_schema.php which contains will add this config to your database.

   Love the get_options(), get_settings() and blog_info() trifecta

   Run /wp-admin/upgrade.php I know, it sounds odd, but just do it. That's the fix for this problem.
