 * Hello,
 * I have completed #1-#5 in the 5 minute wordpress install.
    Now I am stuck on #
   6 trying to access the install.php. The browser keeps asking me to download the
   file rather than opening it…. and I don’t know why. Below is the address of my
   file. I really appreciate it if anyone could help me a bit. Thanks a lot. [http://bert.art.yale.edu/~lanlanliu/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php](http://bert.art.yale.edu/~lanlanliu/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php)

 * This is typically a problem with your web server so you might want to talk with
   your host (or IT) people.
