# edit-comments.php returns plaintext

 * For the life of me, I’m unsure why this is only happening to edit-comments.php.
   Whenever I click “Edit comments” it returns the PHP file as plaintext. No other
   files in the entire wp-admin directory acts this way, and its permissions are
   exactly the same.
 * Additionally, I’ve made no modifications to the original wordpress php code. 
   I am using Cherokee webserver, and its top-priority rule is the default PHP handler.
 * Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

 * Fixed. Turns out chrome decided to cache the file, and constantly downloaded 
   it over and over. Cleared my cache and it all works fine now.
