 * Greetings everyone,
    I am setting up WP for the first time. Following the directions
   for editing the config file went fine, I did however need to add the ?> at the
   end of the page. Now when I try to open the install.php page in FF it asks me
   to download the page. I have seen this when i have created sites with perl, i
   am thinking it is a script issue, the only issue is I have no clue where to start
   looking. Has anyone had this issue themselves and if so how did you fix it? Thank
   you in advanced.
